How to Enable Hidden Boot Screen in Windows Vista

While booting up with Windows, I am quite fade up with the Black boot screen. I want to have a different boot screen and finally found a more visually appealing boot screen that is hidden by Microsoft. It can easily be enabled with very little trouble. I’m not sure why they didn’t make the boot screen better.

If you want a better boot screen, you can try the himage0.pngidden boot screen by Microsoft. The default boot screen looks like the picture in the left. And when you do the trick and enable the hidden bootscreen you will find a visually appealing AURORA boot screen.

Perform the following steps to enable the Aurora boot screen:

1. Click Start > Type “msconfig” in search box, and Press Enter.
2. Navigate to the Boot tab, and then check the “No GUI boot” checkbox.
3. Press OK and restart your system. You should see the new boot screen immediately.

Note: You may get a Windows Defender error on the next startup. You can enable the system config utility using the tray icon and this error will go away.

That is a pretty nice Ester egg frm Microsoft.
