NOTE: Here I’ll describe how to change the first tab “General” in System Properties dialog box. Following is a screenshot of the dialog box which will you get after following this hack:
1.) I’m uploading some images, which will be required to be added in dialog box. Just download them on your computer and Save them as BMP (Coz the site automatically converted them in JPG after uploading):
Save it as 1.BMP.
1.JPG
Save it as 4.BMP.
4.JPG
Save it as 5.BMP.
5.JPG
Save it as 6.BMP.
6.JPG
2.) Open %windir%\System32\sysdm.cpl file in Resource hacker.
3.) Now we have to replace existing 1.BMP file with the downloaded one. To do this:
a.) Goto Bitmap -> 1 -> 1033.
b.) Click on Action -> Replace Bitmap ….
c.) Click on Open file with new bitmap… button.
d.) Select the new downloaded 1.BMP file and click on Open button.
e.) finally click on Replace button.
4.) Now we have to add remaining downloaded BMPs in the file. To do this:
a.) Click on Action -> Add a new Resource ….
b.) Click on Open file with a new resource… button.
c.) select 4.BMP and click on Open button.
d.) Give 4 in Resource Name and 1033 in Resource Language text boxes.
e.) Finally click on Add Resource button.
5.) Repeat 4th Step for other BMPs (5.BMP & 6.BMP) also. (Resource Name for 5.BMP & 6.BMP will be 5 & 6 respectively and Resource Language will be 1033 for both).
6.) Now download following text file, open it and copy the whole contents then goto Dialog -> 101 -> 1033 and replace existing code with the copied code:
7.) Click on Compile Script button.
8.) Now to change the text “Microsoft Windows XP” & “Version 2002” (or something like that):
a.) Goto: String Table -> 12 -> 1033.
b.) Change the String in 180 to “Windows VISTA™ Ultimate Edition” & click on Compile Script button.
c.) Similarly goto: String Table -> 13 -> 1033.
d.) And change the String in 195 to “Hacked by : VISHAL GUPTA” (If u want, U can change “VISHAL GUPTA” with your name ) & click on Compile Script button.
9.) At last Save the file and see the magic.
PS: Here in the screenshot image saying “ask for Genuine Microsoft software” is the OEMLOGO.BMP which you have to place at %windir\System32\ folder. I’m attaching it too.
