Seems to be some SERIOUS compatibility problems I guess, so far Isee its mainly the 1024 version thats no good, and the 1600 version.

This is really odd, because all it should have teken was a resize of the backgrounds so everyone woill see it it properly in their resolution. (so things link the shutdown link will show at the bottom of the user box) it doesnt have any icons of the shutdown button though as its just a text link in longhorn. :)

Ok ! would anyone like to volunteer testing the StarDock 'LogonStudio' version I made ?

- its of the original login. in 1280x1024 - if it works I will try to fix it up for other resolutions later. - I am hoping to get better compatibility with this one.

improvement you'ld need to do/try :

-drop shadow on the shutdown text and any others if theres any (it looks really better and got one in longhorn)

i had another one but cant remember it... ill tell you, and the go button like someone posted earlier would look like cool too dunno, i havent seen the original one yet :D

okay ! - right well I just test BOTH of the 1024x768 versions on my PC, and yes they were working fine... makes it hard for me to figure out the bug when its working fine on my PC ! LOL...

Right this one is for LogonStudio - by StarDock, Resolution: 1280x1024

(TEST)

Longhorn_PDC_Original.zip

Ok I have just added the fixed loginui on the first page. This new one should work in any resolution ( When I tested it on mine it was !) Hopefully this will have fixed some of the problems.

Please re download this login. By the way its the Original Slate Login - not the modded one. (will work on that later today) :D

I used Rsource Hacker, and ResBuild by TGTSoft :)

P.S sorry for the bugs with it not working for everyone. Hopefully the new fixed version on the first page will now work for all ! (see attachment to download)

nice nice thecat...

after like 2 years using the same login im perhaps going to change to the pdc login one... im kinda getting bored of mine although its nice :D

i've been chillin around with the login/cusomtomizing to suites me better...and came accross couples of things, bugs

:

the shadow under the picture...its getting plain blue or another color when hover...

the password box, its not white inside dont looks nice..

check your pm thecat, im sending you url with the pictures, if you have a clue :D

btw, is it possible to have shadow under the textes ? specially the SHUTDOWN one that would be great :D

-BuG

Well they aren't bugs. ;) They are a part of the bitmaps colouring, I knew about the blue glitch when testing it out, its because one of the user account pics has a blue area underneith - I didn't get rid of it in the rush to fix the other size bugs I had.

Can fix all them up for you though. But I bet people are getting tired of downloading my fixes by now :(

As for shadows on the text ? not tried that, and dont know if it can be done with the XP logins. I know I was wondering on how this can be done with the XP logins. Has that ever been done before ?

The password box's hex value is #ffffff so it should be white ! :D (least it should be)

If you want me to fix the blue on this login I will do, but I dont think its hardly noticed, but its also not hard to remove ! LOL

Cat.

Very nice, but I like to have the shutdown dialogs when powering down my pc, like Windows is shutting down and stuff...

hmm I think I'll need or require some help with that part. The original login exe seems to have this disabled some how, and I can't remember how to do those parts :( (been a long time since I last did any resource hacking on these things you know) ! :D

Any tips pointers on what to find and change etc will be appreciated !

Cheers.

Cat. :p

    • You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.
    • I don't get this David. Can you explain it please.  
    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
    • Hello, The Media Creation Tool is still at v10.0.26100.7019 from October 2025. Just looks like the backend has been updated. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
