| | Slideshow Screensaver in Vista before logon? Hi, In XP, I was able to run the slideshow screensaver (ssmypics.scr) before logon by specifying it in HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel \Desktop\SCRNSAVE.EXE. When I try to do the same in Vista, I experience an issue where I am unable to specify the parameters of the screen saver in the registry. Notably, XP has a Screen Saver.Slidshow Key in .DEFAULT where the parameter values are stored. These folders are missing in the Vista registry. The default behavior is a blank screen, and if I try to manually create a DWORD with the FolderPath value, I receive a message in the screensaver that an error is preventing the slideshow from playing. Can someone please help me determine where to specify the parameter values to make this work? Thanks, Jamie |
