I know many of you already installed Windows 7 build 7057 by this time. Even uses on Windows Vista are installing third-party applications to install the latest logon screen for Vista. As always, we can install the latest logon of Windows 7 build 7057 in Vista manually.
Windows 7 build 7057 sports a new logon screen, which is entirely different from the previous builds. The new logon screen is simply superb, which makes us to install it on Vista as well. If you are not in mood to install the latest logon screen in Vista using third-party utilities like logon studio or Vista Mizer, then follow the procedure below to make it happen.
Procedure:
1. Head over to "C:\Windows\System32” folder (“C” is your Vista drive).
2. We need to replace a file named imageres.dll in this (System 32) folder. In order to replace or rename the file, we need to take the ownership of the file. Please refer to the “How to take ownership of a file in Vista” guide to know more about that. Posted just before this post.
3. Once you have the ownership of the file, rename imageres.dll file into imageresOLD.dll. Simply click Continue for the UAC security prompt. We are creating a backup of the file by renaming the file.
4. Now, download the new modified imageres.dll file from here (Thanks to Janhouse).
5. Extract the zipped file to desktop and then the move the file "imageres.dll" to "C:\Windows\System32” folder. Click Continue for UAC security prompt.
6. If you have done everything perfectly, on rebooting your system, Windows Vista should display Windows 7 logon screen.
This method should work fine on both Vista and Vista SP1.
