Yes, there is a logonui.exe in that folder.

Can you check the registry key...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\winlogon, does UIHost have the value "XPize_Logon.exe"
?

[tap52384]

Yes, that registry key exists and the value points to xpize_logon.exe. Not to cause a ruckus, but am I the only one with this issue?

Also, by checking the MD5 value using HashTab, the logonui.exe in C:\windows\system32 is identical to the file in c:\windows\xpize darkside\backup.

I do have one question though; would it matter if the logonui was already patched once before? I didn't think it would matter initially, my apologies if it does.

Its good that the backup file is identical to the system32 file... the backup is a backup of the system32 file!
I've never tested patching and then patching again... i'm assuming it was patched with XPize?
Are you actually seeing the normal welcome screen? ... is your PC on a domain?

Perhaps i've made a mistake somewhere; I'll try on a virtual machine and let you know what happens.

hmmm, I'd hedge my bettings bettings that CLHatch's processor is also Dual Core.

I have the same problem of not having the darkside bootscreen. I tried uninstalling, then reinstalling, used the reloader and still it showed the old blue bar on the boot screen. Please help! I'm not using Dual Core processor.

OS Name Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 Build 2600
OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation
System Manufacturer NVIDIA
System Model AWRDACPI
System Type X86-based PC
Processor x86 Family 15 Model 15 Stepping 0 AuthenticAMD ~2210 Mhz

Windows Directory C:\WINDOWS
System Directory C:\WINDOWS\system32

Same prob here, although I am running a Dual Core CPU. Why would this make a differance, though? Just intereted to know, if you know...

Multi-core/processor systems use ntkrnlmp.exe instead of ntoskrnl.exe

Can this be fixed then? Or does it just mean, anyone using a multi-core CPU system, can't have the new boot screen...

Many thanks...

[zedox]

Darkside does patch ntkrnlmp, but obviously something is going wrong somewhere...

Will look into this.

[tap52384]

Is it possible for someone to post the new logonui.exe?

[underxp]

XPize Darkside fail to patch a Windows XP SP2 Spanish source with error "Error decompresing data! Corrupted installer? ". I download the setup three times and fail all times. I apply XPize 4.7 lite Beta 2 to the same Windows source and not problem found.

[tap52384]

I found that if you manually enter the location of the XP source and don't include the slash at the end that it will fail; if you choose the folder, then the problem should not occur.

[underxp]

I don't enter manually the XP source path. Any ideas ?

[zedox]

underxp
If you don't patch your XP source then how are you getting an error message... "when patching your source" ???

lol

[underxp]

OK. I apply HFSlip first to the XP Source with updates only. Can be this the problem ? Normal XPize don't have problem with it.

[zedox]

this won't be a problem bud...

Are you running XPize Darkside on your source or on the actual installed machine?

[underxp]

I'm running XPize Darkside in my actual XP install, select option "Create a XPIze Dark Side Windows ISO", point to the HFSlipped Windows Source and click "Next". The error is in the first file to process.

[zedox]

Try just clicking next once and waiting...
This sometimes happens if you press next twice. gl

why isnt my xp welcome screen working after my uninstallation, and when i install my start menu is only windows classic

[zedox]

You havn't left me with much to go by there bud...

When did this all happen? Did you have your normal Logon screen working before installation?
Have you got XPize installed aswell? (If so, uninstall both and ONLY install XPize Darkside)
Did you select UXTheme patcher when installing?
