I'm New...What's this about Vista Bootskin

January 1, 2008 2:30 PM from

Okay...ummm, I just downloaded a few images for the Vista Bootskin, but don't see any instructions on how to get them installed properly.

Is it ready yet? If so, how do I get this party started?

There is currently no Bootskin for Vista and the dated version available will not work on it. As far as I know there is not a planned bootskin for Vista at this time.

Now I find out lol. Been trying all afternoon to get a bootskin, but to no avail. Kept getting the Fatal Error screen.

Got the Logon Vista installed thought, which is impressive.

Wish there was a bootskin that worked on vista thought.

Ya fer sher...me too!!

Vista has a lot of quirks and can be very annoying, but I have had it for over a year now, and with solutions like wincustomize and stardock, it takes care of alot of the crap. TweakVista is an awesome little app...love it!
