I am currently writing at Computelogy.com actively and that's why i sort of abandoned my own tech blog. Since i am too busy to be taking care of both sides, i guess this blog will go into hibernation for a very very long time. Regrettable, but then it's hard to come up with new posts & stuffs.

So once again, i am now writing actively at Computelogy. Feel free to visit there and enjoy our latest articles and posts!

Murgee Logon Controller: A Logon Bockground-Changer Compatible With Both Windows Vista & 7



Some users are interested in customizing their PC up and down, which includes the logon screen as well. For users not knowing this technical term, logon screen refers to the background image displayed where you logon to your computer during the final part of a Windows startup. The Logon background is displayed regardless of whether your computer is configured to auto logon or not.

I used to share two posts on two different logon screen changers, LogonStudio Vista and Tweaks.com Logon Changer.  While both are fully functional, both have their own limitations. For LogonStudio Vista, it is capable of running with both Vista and 7, but in order to make some of its functions work on 7, you’ll need to do adjustments on its compatibility. Tweaks.com Logon Changer works just perfectly on Windows 7 (with the additional benefit of not tampering with the digital signatures of Windows 7’s system files), but the problem is it is not designed to run on Vista. 


These issues with the two separate logon tools forced me to go out in search for another working and more flexible Logon Changer and mercifully, I came across a really nice one after a full month of search.


Murgee Logon Controller is another logon screen changer like LogonStudio Vista and Tweaks.com Logon Changer, but it works on both Vista and 7 without experiencing any compatibility issues. The software can be used to change Windows 7 or Vista Logon background by selecting default background images from your computer hard disk. The Logon Background can also be specified by browsing to an external image file (bmp, jpg etc.). As the Logon Background is shared by other users of the computer, the software download would require admin rights to run and change the background image of the login screen.







The software is easy to use, with a ribbon interface in place and only two tabs present due to its rather few functions. Users can customize the interface colour by clicking on the large Start button and browse through various picture folders specified. To verify that a logon screen has been changed, users are required to logoff to view the changes. The only problem is its slightly lagging reaction while browsing for folders with images, but that is no serious bug.

Murgee Logon Controller is now one of my favourite logon background changer because of its stability and flexibility between Vista and 7. It is highly recommended to everyone.

Hey james, no talk didn't talk to you. Recently, my friend ask me to solve her msn problems. The problem with her msn is that she can't sign in despite uninstall it and then install again and also I discover that her system restore can't not create "backup" to system restore. When I try to help her to create a system restore, an error message saying that it can't proceed to create a system restore. Any ideas?

I got this kind of MSN problem amongst my friends as well...funny i didn't come across it myself though. All i can say is when you can't sign in, don't blame it on the software; blame it on your network connection, or the server of MSN. Have you tried configuring auto-tuning feature, if your friend is running Vista? Here's an old post of mine detailing instructions on how to configure Vista's autotuning level, have a look:

As for the system restore problem, there are no definite answers...maybe there are missing or corrupted system files required for system restore to work, maybe conflict between system files, maybe a running application prevented system restore for working properly. It takes time and effort to really find out what cause this...personally i thought maybe she should disable her system restore and re-enable it. I do not know whether this will work in her case but it's worth a try. You can also try running system restore in Windows safe mode, see if its an application/service conflict that cause it to not work properly.

Comment to me if this helps you or not.
