With the help of this tutorial you can display a Message Title and Text of your choice. This message will be displayed on a screen which will appear before the logon screen in Windows Vista.
- Click on the Start button, type regedit and hit Enter
- Click Continue to bypass the UAC
- In Registry Editor, navigate to
Quote:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
- Move into the right pane, double click on legalnoticecaption and click Modify
- In the Value data field, type a Title of your choice say "Its my logon screen" and hit Enter.
- To give a text, double-click on legalnoticetext given right below and click Modify again.
- In the Value data field, type a text of your choice say "careful ! Vista world ahead" and press Enter.
- Exit Registry Editor and Log off to see the changes.
