I attempted to edit the image 516 in spwizimg.dll (Vista Ultimate 32). All I want to change is the white background with an image of my choosing. When I attempt this and test it in Vista setup I get the black border and no transparency. Any suggestions or ideas? Any help will be appreciated.

@EagleWing

You can edit it in photoshop.

The image is with alpha layers so if you save it as a .bmp check 'advanced options' and check 'A8 R8 G8 B8' at 32 bit option.

Then you 'll not have the black border.

Hope this helps, DJPro

I will give it a try and let know how I fared. Thanks

Well I gave it a try and here is what happened. I installed Adobe Photoshop CS4 extended. I then loaded my 516 bitmap from the spwizimg.dll file and then 'placed' the image of my choice and resized appropriately, saved as per your instructions. I then used resource hacker to open spwizimg.dll. I then attempted to replace the 516 bitmap file with my edited file. All I got was a violation code message. I saved it anyway and tested it. The image appeared as I edited, worked fine. Just wondering why I got the error message. Did I do something wrong? Any ideas?

I usually work with Resource Tuner.
Never had those issues but I think it would also work with Reshacker.

If you want you can PM your image so I can give it a try.
