If Logon Studio doesn't work how can you change that blue logon screen? I don't like it. I want to change it but it doesn't work. I changed imageres.dll from c:\Windows\systen32\....... but remains unchanged. How should I do to change the logon screen.

Thanks

PS.
I have Windows Server 2008 x64 installed on my system and it rocks.

The answer is simple - you cant Ok, maybe you can, but we haven't found way to do it yet - i searched alot in the registry, imageres.dll and other files but still nothing..There must be some settings in the core for each OS type - for example the logon background is still in imageres.dll, but its not even used from there.If you use the vista crack, the server manager and other server-related functions doesnt work, so your OS is still Server 2008, but its recognized as workstation type and the logon background looks just like vista.

- TotalCommander 7.03
works fine in Server 2008 (tested, I'm a registered owner of TC software) !
It is fully functional with just one exception:
TC doesn't see the Windows\System32\ folder content, redirects to the SysWOW64 folder content. This is not Server 2008 specific, but with all Win x64 OSs. TC know about the problem: http://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=7077
- WinRAR 3.8 b3
entirely functional, even the context menu options.
- Most tools and apps mentioned here work just fine in win2k8: http://jult.net/entry/45/Essential_and_recommended_soft

Just wanted to drop a line that Ultramon 3.02 works just fine on 2008 x64. Not sure if the person who listed it as not working was using x86 or not, though.

Truecrypt 6.0 works fine on x64, too.

I can also confirm Mobile Net Switch v3.71 works on Windows Server 2008 x64. Please see: http://www.MobileNetSwitch.com

VirtualDub 1.8.4 x64 is fully functional...
Skype's latest versions (3.8) are fixed and dont crash


Alcohol 120% 1.9.6 - fully functional
