Windows XP - startup (account) page

GerryRyan · 2007-12-29 03:39:32

Does anyone know how I could go about changing the XP startup page - the part where you choose the user to log in as ... ? I want to change the background or do something with it. Would it be done through regedit or is it a case of finding the right image or system file?

There are a few programs to do so, ThemeXP or Logon Loader (haven't used this one). Try wincustomize.com also.
