About BootSkin and LogonStudio

Sunday, January 11, 2004 by neophil78 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

1°) Bootskin when (after ?)loading disable the "Ver num" function and switch it off. Is there something to do to keep "Verr num" as it initial state (on by default for me) ?

2°) Bootskin and logonStudio get messages in English. Is there a way to have them in our own language ? (i mean apart from texts on bitmaps ...)

thanks for your tips

1. I have not seen this problem before. No screen pops up showing version on my computer.

2. Unfortunately there are not available in other languages, specially since they are freeware

for 1°) LogonStudio when activated do the same when closing session ...

2°) i've found how to do it for LogonStudio by editing the theme.ini and replace all texts in my language, but it's not really fun to do it for each Logon ...
I think it would be fairly easy for Stardock to add an option to switch to a language, and pretty sure people from different contries would send the translation package for adding it in the LogonStudio language file list... (it's already ready for french )

neophil78....... I thought you used Win98 exclusively (or do I have you confused with someone else?).......... LogonStudio doesn't work on 98..... BootSKin either I'm thinking. 

1. Have never seen that.

2. The developer for LogonStudio vanished without a trace....... fell off the planet as yrag would say. LogonStudio is all it will ever be.

You thought well Koasati, but as i've had a big DD crash with a big Motherboard crash, i did a big upgrade for a fast card + fast processor + fast DDR + disk ... XP (it's just since 3 or four days ...)

But i'm still running (at least for a while) win98 also (in dual boot)

I thouhgt bootskin or loginstudio where disabling the numeric pad on startup. In fact that's Win XP which is not loading numeric pad by default as Win98 did.
Here's a tip to get the "Verr Num" function activated on startup and/or reboot :

Run Regedit
Go to HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT/Control Panel/Keyboard
Double click on value InitialKeyboardIndicators and then modify it to 2 (you should go back to 0 to unactivete it)

Do the same thing to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Keyboard on value InitialKeyboardIndicators

Very pratical ...

On my computer you can do it by hitting the F(1-12) corresponding to system setup. I can tell it to boot with Num Lock on. (Verr Num is the same as Num Lock I assume) This works great for me. I didnt have the problem you describe either.
