► Windows Vista Boot Screen
This is the loading screen on Vista. Just like the real vista, its only contains the loading bar. No logo whatsoever..

Okey..i'll try.i'm not sure myself because i'm done it by doing experiment on every tools J-Slade compile on the 1st page post.. tongue.gif
okey:

1. I install Wblinds 5.01 enhanced with Aero Style skin

2. Then I install all the requirement needed in order to properly installed and run real Windows Sidebar :
-MSXML6.0
-Windows Installer
-Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
-Wireless LAN API
-IE7
-Windows Media Player 11
-Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package

3. I install Windows Vista Sidebar

4. Install Vista Icon Pack v3 but uncheck Mouse pointer and Visual Tooltips
-check FAQ on 1st page for more info (just following the c-foo.. smile.gif )

5. I installed XP Vista Pack by oddbasket (same as what c-foo told me in FAQ section)

6. Then for the enhancement I install Visual Tooltip by Christian Salmon, Vista Startmenu Emulator RC2 for XP and Xentient Thumbnails.

7. And finally the wallpaper I get from the newly released Ultimate wallpaper.

Well, that's all about it I guess.Hope it'll help you all. wink.gif
(Note: All the file I mention above all I got from the 1st page of this thread..thanks to J-Slade and all persons that contribute all this notworthy.gif )
