VISTA TUTORIAL: Add Customized Strings in System Properties Dialog Box

[Vishal Gupta]

Guys!

By using this hack, u'll get some extra information and a Logo in Vista System Properties dialog box. Its very much same as the good old "OEMLogo.bmp" and "OEMInfo.ini" files in windows XP but sadly this trick no longer works in Vista.

Here is a screenshot of my current Vista System Properties dialog box with my own customized strings:

I am trying to edit my sysdm.cpl file to give it a customized look. I am trying to make it look like this -

The script is compiling and everything seems to work fine in Resource Hacker but when I save the file this is what I get -

How do I correct this problem? Any help would be appreciated!
