Win 7 pre login

Postby halfday » Fri Jan 06, 2012 3:02 pm

Hi
I have been asked to put a screensaver at the pre login state in windows 7, After a bit of looking around on the internet I am able to get logon.scr from a vista pc and put it on to the win 7 build without any problems, but when I create a scr file with Screensaver factory 6 I can’t get it to work.
Do you have any ideas or workarounds that could help me?

There is a Microsoft Knowledge Base article about "How to change the Windows Logon screen saver in Windows XP". The same applies to Windows 7. Basically you have to modify Windows Registry.

Unfortunately Screensaver Factory does not support logon screensavers. This is a technical issue that we can't fix because it's beyond our control. If we find some kind of fix or workaround, we would of course implement this feature.
