A "Bi-Directional Parallel Port Cable" connects to basically your printer ports of each PC, and then there is the USB method and the 1394 Firewire method.. And then there is Xero's method..LoL!, but you know what, that probably works! There is a pretty indepth help file in the windows help section, just do a search for "Direct Cable Connection" in the microsoft database. It tells you step by step the proceedures for each type of connection

Well congrats Richard.. There are actually a few ways to transfer data, direct cable connect is a common way. You connect a bi-directional cable to the 2 PC's your working with. I believe they have Firewire adapters to do this now days, it's been awhile for me, I still have one of the old "printer style bi-directional's" (simple way to describe it) Another way is to simply slave your existing drive into the new machine. you gain a driv

Clwoods, there seems to be issues with that file (jpgutils.dll) I found an abundant source of info when I did a web search looking for the file. Needless to say I did not spend alot of time reading about it, I did note that the Keylogger bug has been a known problem with it, they say that Nortons is reading it incorrectly, the best thing to do, I would suppose, would be to ask Symatec straight up. I doubt Stardock would be giving us

**UPDATE** That worked!...I simply excluded the file from Nortons and reinstalled Logon Studio, works like a charm now! Now I can quit looking for "hacks" to the proggie to make it do what I want it to do..LoL! Zero.

HuH, thanks Koasati, but uuuuuummmm..I am using BMP's for the logons I "want" to create and I do still get the error. I also have tried creating a logon, making no changes to the windows standard logon in the create preview panel, and clicking "Save" and the error pops up... I may try putting the file in the *Exclude list in Nortons, reinstall Logon studio and see if that helps.. It's unfortunate, but I am running so much s

As much as I hate to ask for directions (my wife tells me it's a "Male Ego" thing..LoL) I am having trouble with creating Logons in Logon Studio,(free version). I have followed the Tutorial to the very letter in the help section to no avail. I had wrote it off to being a feature only available in the *Pro version(actually creating Logon's)but in a recent post here on these boards I was corrected, so now I come to the experts for help!

Ok (rant,rant,rant)Yrgal, im waiting for a reply, explain to me *your justification for obviously "correcting" me, because at this point (since I have had my coffee!..LoL) I fail to see how any of your points are valid. One thing I do see that you did *Not point out is the use of the program "Log-on Studio"(free version) for purposes that it was not exactly intended.

If you are using Log-on studio there is a work around that you can use if you want to use a certain backround as a log-on. This is no way the proper way to do it, but it works.. First, choose a working log-on that has everything set up the way you want it..ie: Log-on box, messages, etc,,etc,, Then choose the wallpaper you want to use, You may have to do a little editing to the image for it to be accepted by windows.
