Windows 7 Boot Screen Changer
Posted September 27, 2010 – 5:36 pm in: Freeware, Windows 7 GuidesThose who have been following Into Windows for a long time might already know that the end user can’t change the awesome Windows 7 boot animation (boot logo) with a custom one. Read more about this at Engineering Windows 7 blog.
Now, a little over one year after the Windows 7 RTM build release, Jeff Bush has released a free tool that does the miracle with a click! Yes, you can now replace the Windows 7 boot animation with a custom one.
Windows 7 Boot Animation Updater is a small tool that allows you change boot animation and texts (Starting Windows and © Microsoft Corporation) in a jiffy.
Key features:
# Modifies the boot animation
# Modifies the boot text “Starting Windows” and “© Microsoft Corporation”
# Will compile the animation from 105 BMP, PNG, GIF, or TIFF images
# Does not require any other applications (like ImageX)
# Designed to be idiot-proof by having numerous checks
# Automatically backs up the modified winload.exe and bootres.dll
# Can be run as a GUI or command-line program
# Works for 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7
# Numerous other little things (e.g. forcing timestamps) to match the original
Visit the download page for detailed information on how to use this tool.
Note: This tool is still in Alpha stage. So, test this on your own risk!!

The program has been majorly updated recently and it would be nice if you updated your post. Please email me so that I can put you on the list for future update notifications.
Jeff, many thanks for informing about the update. Will cover it.
please update, seems to be its not working on my machines…..2 Dell Inspiron 1525, Dell Inspiron 1545, and Compaq CQ60, with windows 7 32 bit build 7600
can any one post the exact requirements for this software?seems to be that the author is not responding anymore…
Its very nice good job and do this type of things in life good nice gorgeous
@Sherwin,
As the software is still in beta, it might not be working for everyone. Requirements: Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 & MS Visual C++ 2010 library
Also in my comp, it does not work. My comp is in win7 already and i don’t know why when it boots it’s still in vista.
I don’t know what you guys are doing wrong, but it works perfectly for me. I wish I could use images larger than 200×200, but I’ll get over it.
is this 100% safe to use(no virus no missing buttons no errors that makes windows unbootable..)
@Pesoen
The latest beta version of Windows 7 Boot Updater is stable and works fines on most of the machines. Still, we recommend a complete image backup of your OS drive to avoid any issues.
