Screen Shot of Login Screen

[Mike Towan]

I am writing some training documentation and need to
include some screen shots of Windows 2000/XP login screens.

I can't seem to get it to work, Printkey and similar
programs and the straight Printscreen or ALT+Printscreen
don't seem to work unless you are logged into windows....

Anyone have any suggestions?

Go here and download a little gem called Resource Hacker:
http://www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker/

Login screens are located in \winnt\system32\msgina.dll.
Look under Dialog/1500/1033. Display it, hit Alt+PrtScrn
and paste it into Paint etc.

104K as opposed to the orignal 40 k jpg . )

Mike
I received an email from you this morning saying you'd recieved
the image files I sent and that you had to filter the image out
of MSGina.dll or something ???

You've got me very confused now as all I sent were two jpg images
not any dll's

Steve, I referred Mike to a utility that can do what he wants.
