I reckon it won't; still on XP and never seen them but you could copy them out of a 3xxx Longhorn build.

Could someone please upload them?

Where can I do that?

Some files about the Longhorn login screen might exist in the Longhorn Transformation Pack.(I only suppose I am not sure.)

tried to replicate this years ago and failed terribly.. i doubt it works without massive hacking.

SotirisMichail · **Post subject:** Re: Longhorn Clock **Posted:** Thu Oct 21, 2010 12:28 pm

What do you mean by "massive hacking"?

diaze · **Post subject:** Re: Longhorn Clock **Posted:** Thu Oct 21, 2010 3:36 pm

well, i meant that it is simply impossible to do it with moving resources from the one folder to the other and adjust them a little bit with a simple reshacker, it would need more effort than that. you may prove me wrong on that point though.

What kind of haking programs we need?

linuxlove · **Post subject:** Re: Longhorn Clock **Posted:** Thu Oct 21, 2010 4:50 pm

From what I've heard about the Longhorn Clock, it sounds like the things you need is Windows XP source code, Longhorn 3xxx source code, Microsoft C compilers and a whole lot of hard drive space.

Can someone post the build number of this longhorn build in order to download it from the BetaArchive FTP?

hounsell · **Post subject:** Re: Longhorn Clock **Posted:** Thu Oct 21, 2010 6:25 pm

Nah.
It's a pretty simple clock that by itself, isn't hard to replicate.

However, "hacking it in" to the current logon screen is pretty much a no-go.

The "simplest" route would be to create a new GINA in C++. That'd be a substantial effort just to acheive a clock though.

It's in 3683, 3706, 3718 and 4008.

Thanks!I think I also saw screenshots of build 4011 with the same login screen,but I downloaded it from BA FTP and when I try to install it,it gives me a corrupted setup.exe error.

Correct,

This is a problem build, there is an bug in this versions PE (Preinstallation Environment) this leads to uninstallable build from the original disc.
Workaround:

1) Open the 4011 and extract \sources\install.wim
2) Open 4008 and delete \sources\install.wim
3) Insert the 4011 install.wim into 4008 \sources\ folder
4) Save and install, it should work now.

But now you have the same problem as 4008, you must apply the diskpart/format trick before installing (at welcome to setup menu

Actually, yeh. 4011 too. Forgot about that build - 4015 introduces the "new" Login screen.

Thanks!But how can I do that diskpart/format trick that you are talking about?

You need your virtual HDD to already contain a NTFS partition because if you try to create+format one from Setup, you'll end-up with a bunch of errors.

SHIFT+F10 I believe will open cmd from inside Setup. Type diskpart /? and read the instructions.

I'm pretty sure you'd have to modify it yourself.
