Problem customizing colors in appearance display properties
Hi,
For some reason, I am unable to use 3 digits for R, G, and B boxes in customising colors in appearance tab under display properties. It only lets me enter 2 numbers? I have never had this problem before. Even if there are 3 numbers listed in R box, when I click on the box and enter the numbers I want, it stops at 2 numbers. Has anyone seen this problem before or know how to fix it? Thanks for any help you can give me. |

Problem customizing colors in appearance display properties
Huh!?
Have been doing this for along time with no problem. Don't know why it would suddenly change. Your answer was not helpful at all, but thanks for replying.

Problem customizing colors in appearance display properties
First of all, THANK YOU for such detailed and precise instructions. I don't
know what I am doing wrong, but it is not saving the changes I made. I opened comdlg32.dll in C:\Windows\System32 in Resource Hacker, made the changes from 18 to 20, clicked on Compile Script", then File, Save As. I named it C:\COMDLG32.DLL and exited Resource Hacker. I checked in C: and it was saved there as a Common Dialogs Dll. I then opened MoveOnBoot and filled out source file as C:\COMDLG32.DLL to destination location C:\Windows\System32\COMDLG32.DLL. And I said yes to replace with. Then when trying to change colors in display properties didn't work, I opened comdlg32.dll again in Resource Hacker and it was still listed as 18 instead of 20 in all the categories. I tried it a couple of more times with the same result. Do you have any idea what I am doing wrong to make it not save or replace Thanks for your help.

Problem customizing colors in appearance display properties
OK, I know why.
MoveOnBoot is not copying the file before it is loaded by Windows on start-up so when it is being copied the copy fails because it's in use already. Bugger! I copy system files like the comdlg32.dll one with a WinPE CD, like "Ultimate Boot CD" and the like. What do you have? Nothing? I'll try to find a good iso image for you to download and burn so you can boot from the CD and copy the file that way. You know what an iso image is? ju.c "Gail" wrote in message ...
