Secret Vista Boot Screen

Normally, Windows Vista will boot up with a boring progress bar scrolling across a black background. However, it is possible to change this to something much more interesting with just a few clicks!

The old boot screen currently looks like this:

Once you have restarted your PC you will see this new boot screen, which should not have any adverse effect on loading times.
