Nigel, I've enclosed a Windows NT Knowledge Base article which explains how to do this. Tom O. [ms] ———— You can change the default background bitmap used at the Windows NT logon screen by modifying a value in the Registry. To do so, use the following procedure: WARNING: Registry Editor (REGEDT32.EXE) is a very powerful utility that allows you to directly change the Registry Database. Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems, including hard disk corruption. It may be necessary to reinstall the software to correct any problems. Microsoft does not support changes made with Registry Editor. Use this tool at your own risk. 1. Start Registry Editor (REGEDT32.EXE). 2. Locate and select the following Registry subkey: HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop 3. Select the Wallpaper value and choose String from the Edit menu. 4. In the String field, type the full name of the bitmap, including the full path if the file is not located in the SYSTEM32 directory. 5. Exit Registry Editor to save the changes. The next time you logon, the bitmap you chose should be displayed. Read action !
