Good news: In former times you had to disable System Restore, exchange some dlls n’stuff. Today Windows 7 allows you to change the background of the Logon Screen pretty easy:
It’s only the the following 2 steps:
1) set the value of the registry key from 0 to 1: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Background\OEMBackground (dword)
2) copy the desired new background image named “backgroundDefault.jpg” into C:\Windows\System32\oobe\info\backgrounds
Et voilà: the background has changed without any restart!
Note: create the registry key or folder, if it does not exist!
Note2: imagesize may not exceed 256k !
Today I run into a strange error: In an .NET Windows Form I’m referencing a ConnectionString from Application Settings.
At 12:00 it worked.
Changed a line of code; recompiled; started over at 12:01.
The app came up with an error: “Unrecognized configuration settings UserSettings“, the debugger pointed me to the settings file.
Tried a lot. Searched the internet. Found the only working solution:
Navigate to your user’s application data folder, and delete all the config-files belonging to your app.
Visual Studio 2010 RC – doesn’t contain the latest version of MVC2 – which is RC2 luckily I found this post: Installing ASP.NET MVC 2 RC 2 on Visual Studio 2010 RC After this procedures everything should be fine and ready to exploit the latest versions
I was always excited by the long runtimes and the sunlight readability provided by Ebooks! Yet most of them are not really “programmable” – maybe with the Exception of the Rex (but hey we are not Linux C++ guys). The EBook from Malata based on Windows CE gives you all the options – and yes if they can really keep their promise of 1 Week continuous reading their are many possibilities for LOB applications.
Wir sind heuer als Tourpartner auf der ganzen Tour und wir freuen uns schon auf viele Gespräche bei uns am Stand – aber auch in der Community Lounge, für die wir gerade eine Microsoft Surface Applikation entwickeln. Vor allem die WebCam Anbindung, in unserem Fall eine LifeCam Cinema, die wirklich schöne Fotos machen würde ….
… bis jetzt konnten wir uns aber nur selbst fotografieren
Daher freuen wir uns auf viele nette Gesichter bei den
