dowloaded and installed the vista one and tried to add the aeon, xbmc boot, and xbmc new black and none could be added: "not compatible with this version of bootskin" tried to update but is says there arent any, we gotta buy this?
- SlaveUnit - 2009-05-08
maybe they only work on XP. Dont know really. I dont have a Vista to try with. They look very much like XP boot screens though.

hm bootskin gives me BSOD at boot, tried both lite blue and old (in win XP). have to boot into safe mode to disable bootskin.
heads up for Win7 users.. - dolgan - 2009-05-08
Not sure how many people are running the Win 7 beta but just a warning - installing bootskin vista on Win 7 will render your system INOPERABLE (you can't even geto to F8 screen). You will need to do full OS reinstall...
Bootskin Until XBMC Loads? - Wizard1969 - 2009-05-08
Very cool thanks. Is there a way to make the bootskin stay up all through windows boot until xbmc loads?

My xp sp3 box blue screens with bootskin installed, i have to revert to the last know good configuration to boot back agani.
I'm back to using /noguiboot /bootlogo and a boot.bmp.

Feel like making one for Serenity?

After the xbmc boot screen i can see the blue windows "welcome" screen for about 2 sec. Is there a way to disable it?
And what about the blue exit screen when I shut windows down?

specifically...
Getting rid of the "Loading settings" Popup screens
* The following will hide the dialog box that appears that the beggining of Windows startup informing you that the system is "Loading Settings".
To do this,follow these steps:
1. Go to, Start Menu -> Run and enter regedit
2. Navigate to entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>Microsoft>Windows>CurrentVersion>Policies>System
3. If there is an entry for "DisableStatusMessages" set it to 1 (the digit one)
* If there is no entry, right-mouse click the "System" word, and select New->DWORD value, and enter "DisableStatusMessages", right-mouse to edit the value of it, and enter 1 (the digit one).

You can also boot into safe mode, start bootskin and select the default bootskin (i.e. disabling it).
Do some people get it to work properly when using winXP?
