Aware of Win2K3 Server is mostly of course not the goal of a package like this (issues of bootscreen or logon screen replacing). The changed winntbbu.dll doesnt appereared at last installation :(

Need i edit that file self that the "server" page of it is modified???

Thanks for any useful answer.

A small legal hint: My W2K3 is an evalution copy i use only for development testing purposes...

Very cool indeed! What if I want to do an unattended install? Does it support the same switches as regular XPize? If not, what are they so I can perform a fully silent custom install?

Thanks!

Does this pack overwrite the DLL files or does it simply replace the bitmaps inside of these files. I have the vipv3 vista icon pack that I was integrate into my windows. The only thing I need from this pack is the edited bitmaps for the wizards and a few other minor things. Is it possibly to some how compare the differences of these two packs and try to integrate them both.

LOL, kinda hard I bet, though

this package works exactly like XPize. XPize replaces the bitmaps within the files.You can integrate the changes file by file but you cant change the resources within the files 1 by 1. more information is available Here

OK. I just installed the package. It works great. Afterwards, I still had all my icons from vipv3, except the my my computer icon. I reinstalled the vipv3 and it restored the my computer icon.

So now I got everything without having to make my own custom files :-).

Thanks.

TrueTransparency v0.8.5 - the only in memory third party application
Razor Theme 1.2 (from deviantart)
Custom Spybot SD Icon (from deviantart)

Set icons as 48px in display appearance advanced

If you're trying to achieve a "vista look" for xp then I should recommend you try out energize, or vistapack.

I would guess that an update that is compatible with sp3 will come some time after the original xpize is updated to support sp3, although xpero seems to be rewriting that quite a bit so it could take some time...
