my son in law has bought an acer micro system with windows 7 home premium on it. i have downloaded an app that allows me to change the log on screen & have done so successfully on my own laptop (toshiba) my desktop, & my daughters netbook. BUT whenever i have tried to do this on the new ACER it just wont let me at all
i'm having some trouble with my screen resolution . i set it at (800x600) cause i'm using a 51 inch big screen hd tv. it go's full screen but then for no reason it puts the bars back on the sides of the screen. i checked and it still reads (800x600) and i can't get it to change back to full screen until i reboot. works fine in vista . i'm not seeing anything about drivers failing so i'm not sure what's happening.

for the past month i have had an issue where before the log in screen would show, it would be a blank screen with a cursor, that i could move. (It worked normal in safe mode) I normally would just ignore this problem and it seemed to go back to normal after a little while. Well yesterday it didn't go away, so i went online looking for a solution, in safe mode. I've read to disable/enable drivers, re-install drivers, just plenty of things. And the result of all this is that my screen resolution wont go back to normal, and there is a black border around my screen, around a half inch. Also, my computer has been running EXTREME slow lately.
I would like to change my logon screen (as the blueish one with "i think its supposed to be a Dove") looks total crap to me! but as i don't logon (only i use this Comp) is it possible to change it ?
Is there an util where I can make the fn key always "pressed" so I don't have to press it when I want to e.g. change the brightness of the screen? My laptop is a Presario CQ70.
i'm using windows 7 proffesional and my graphic card is a nvidia geforce 8400m 128mb, i just got the latest driver update going but since i did that, i've been having problems, like i open up a certain game like lets say fifa 10, my desktop display does not change according to the games display, but before i installed the latest driver it was just fine..
my sister has an acer aspire one d255 with a dual core intel atom processor. Today I installed windows 7 ultimate edition over the windows 7 starter. But now I cant change the resolution on it . Its stuck on 800x600. In starters edition it was 1024x768. The drop down for the resolution in the screen resolution window is gray ( meaning it cant be clicked. The screen is shown as a generic pnp.
Found this logon screen changer, used to be complicated but Win7 has made changes, thereby making this program an easy add on. Now, I just can't decide which picture I prefer..

My Windows 7 came with a minimal boot screen that only shows bars going across (like XP but without logo). I opened msconfig to see if the No GUI boot was selected, but it wasn't. I tried change the boot screen with Win7BootUpdater, but that didn't work, either.
I have my password on my Windows 7 laptop set as a Russian word, and my default language is English. Usually, when I am prompted for my password, there is a button I can click to choose the keyboard language, so I can type it in. However, I restarted my computer and the button has vanished. This means that I cannot choose the Russian alphabet to type my password in, and my computer has become unusable. I do not have a password reset disk. Is there any way for me to fix this problem? If you need more information.
Does anyone know if it is possible (will be possible) to change the Win 7 boot screen?I have read that MS have built Win 7 so that the boot screen cannot be fiddled with, thus protecting the PC against changes more than earlier windows version have done
change the login screen picture , I have followed the instructions on google and when I click Find on the OMEBackground no files appear and then I'm stuck, there are no Instructions that I can find for that??
I need to change the "PRESS CTRL+ALT+DEL To Log On" on the secure login screen to something else. does anyone know how to do this? i assume i'll have to edit a dll, but which one?
I don't know if this one can be done. I know how to turn off the ding sound it makes when my computer boots up but does anyone know how to change the boot screen animation? I would like to put one of my own animations on there instead of the windows logo popping up from 4 little lights.
I've used the a couple programs to change the background of my logon screen, I've tried using logon workshop but it doesn't make sense to me. All I want is a logon screen with a certain background, a text box for my password and thats it.
I really don't like the logon screen in build 7057 -- looks pale and insipid compared with previous build (especially on a laptop with one of those Ultra-Brite screens)
It's the same screen you see when you lock the computer -- horrible.
Any way to change this -- sometimes there is a way to add an OEM customization.
Anybody had a chance to tinker around with this and get a nice background?
I have scanned control panel items and cannot find where or how to change the login screen setup. Not the background, but witch users to show and when to skip and go straight to a specific user without login? Windows 7, Core2 Duo CPU.
