Windows 7 Logon Background - How to minimize it, so it doesn't stretch across the entire screen
by Guest dpoole46- 0 replies
- 202 views
We are upgrading all Windows XP SP3 to WIndows 7 Enterprise. I created a Master Image to use with WDS for deployment purposes. The Master Image is set up exactly how I need it to be, WITH THE EXCEPTION of the Logon Screen Logo. We use a .JPG file of our Corporate Logo. In Windows XP, it could be configured to be small and centered on the screen, with Windows 7, it stretches across the entire screen (Image *doesn't* look good at all). Is there a way to do this in Windows 7? Thanks in advance for all your assistance! Continue reading...

Anyone tried deleting a registry key in Windows 7? Got "access denied" or "Error while deleting key"? The usual response is, "You need to run regedit as an administrator". but I *AM* logged in as Administrator, and running regedit as administrator, trying to assign administrator full permissions on that registry key in order to delete it!! Am I mistaken, or isn't Administrator supposed to be able to administer and control all the settings on the computer, in order to set it up for the "Average Joe" user? So, under the permissions menu of that key, go to advanced, change the owner from System to Administrator, and try again. It's no longer saying "access denied", b…

I do not tweet. Next came a request for the 'original' name and/or password. Well, now.. I initially signed up wil Southwest Bell about 7 to 10 years ago. Since then the carrier has changed multipule times as has my user name and password. NOBODY told me 10 years ago that I would need them in 2011. They are gone like my youth, never to be recovered by me. Yet your software tells me that what I think it is, is wrong. How do I read the same thing from my computer that your software does??? Or is there a way to by-pass that question? The alternative is to send you the disc and you send me $185.00. What do I do?? Aged One Continue reading...
