Default Change background for logon/boot screen

Does anyone know how to change the boot and/or logon background into a different one manually (meaning, without crap like themexp or logon studio, etc.)?

You have to play with registry. Editing files LUGONUI.EXE (Loginscreen) and NTOSKRNL.EXE. If you feel for that, I can try to put here a translation of what I have found, 'cause everything in eng was about using that crappy programs.

OK:
logon screen:
in System32 is file LOGONUI.EXE - original logon screen
Create new file - for example LOGONNEW.exe in System32.
edit registry address: Hkey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
in UIHost entry, change the value LogonUI.EXE for LOGONNEW.EXE.


Boot screen:
System32 -> NTOSKRNL.EXE - original boot screen.
Create new file - f.e: NTOSOBR.EXE in System32
Edit boot.ini file.
copy line under [opreating systems] (it looks like this: multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect) and paste it under the original line, and write this in the end: /KERNEL=NTOSOBR.EXE
It should look like this:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOW S
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /KERNEL=NTOSOBR.EXE

Now after reboot you'll have 2 OS to run(one is oroginal, the second is with new bootscreen.)
If the new boot runs good, you can dlete the original line. else start with normal boot screen and delete the line added.


Or try this
I also found that TuneUp allows you to do this.
