High quality image Vista boot screen

Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversSome people found a way to change that black boot screen of Windows Vista RTM to a high quality one, the one that was supposed to be in before it was cut from the final version.
The only thing I didn't like is that the progress bar doesn't move. If you want one that it moves, the image has to be a 16bit only.
Installatin instructions:
1. Take ownership of the folders %SystemRoot%\system32\en-US and %SystemRoot%\system32\Boot\en-US, then give yourself RW privileges.
2. Take ownership of the files %SystemRoot%\system32\en-US\winload.exe.mui and %SystemRoot%\system32\Boot\en-US\winload.exe.mui, then give yourself RW privileges.
3. Select your screen aspect ratio (most screens are 4:3, 1280*1024 ones are 5:4, most widescreens are 16:9, some notebooks are 16:10) and the wanted progress bar color.
4. Copy winload.exe.mui from the folder that contains your chosen bar color and screen aspect ratio version (for example, greenbar\4.3) to %SystemRoot%\system32\en-US and %SystemRoot%\system32\Boot\en-US, overwriting previous files.
5. Enable "No GUI Boot" using Msconfig (if it isn't enabled yet).
Uninstallation Instructions
1. If you had "No GUI Boot" disabled before installing this boot screen, disable it using Msconfig.
2. Copy winload.exe.mui from the "Original" folder to %SystemRoot%\system32\en-US and %SystemRoot%\system32\Boot\en-US, overwriting any previous files.

called "greenbar" in vista.

good to see my files spread! (yes, this bootscreen was made by me!) the real version that you are looking for
is 7.13 mb, and it should contain a txt and 9 mui files, arranged in folders. the one with the bmps is fake.
can you tell us where can we get the hole file .netroller 3d?

i tried the mediafire link and it says it's been removed. this download from any of the links above is a
zip file containing just pictures to use for boot, not making any sense following the included instructions.
if you know how to put a bmp in for your boot screen then have at it. the guy above me has the link to the
same stuff.
nice work general_brazil69, shame we can't use them. as predator has stated it's been removed!
can anybody tell me another location for the 7.1 mb file containing the mui files...?
thx
general_brazil69 !
the link is gone... someone pls give another working link?

how do you get the progress bar to move?
for the boot screen.
dunno
you convert you photo to 16 bit (you maybe have it in 24 bit now). it should work then
can someone make a 16bit version with moving p-bar and instructions?
yees yees
if you guys plan on doing that, then give proper credit. and please stop uploading my stuff to other websites.
keep the download on deviantart or ask my permission via e-mail to upload it. i really do not appreciate it
people doing this...
since these bootscreens were specifically made for windows vista, there is no way you can get a progress bar
because "noguiboot" doesn't use a progress bar.
