um i tried it and I realized there's no way to have a customized animated bootscreen. I had made a .gif file but that's not the kind of file that TuneUp uses I think. How do I make a custom animated bootscreen? D:

The Winstyler utility changes both the boot and login screens in Windows Vista. Winstyler also allows users to apply visual styles. The bootscreen and msstyles features are disabled under Windows 7.
I've tried to create a boot screen with Winstyler on a Vista-based PC. I've encountered the native error 0008 several times and was unable to make my own boot screens.
Any alternatives?
