Enable Windows Vista Hidden Boot Screen

The Windows Vista BootScreen is pointless,dull and in short – BORING. The guys at Redmond,Microsoft (?) decided to Windows Vista Tips and Hacks™ :Phide a more visually appealing boot screen of Windows Vista for that blank piece of art (?). However,the hidden boot  screen can be easily enabled in Windows Vista in full glory and with very little trouble. I'm not sure why they didn't make the boot screen better but I think they wanted to give Windows users a surprise what Vista be hiding underneath (which failed miserably).

Type msconfig in search box

Now navigate to boot tab,and then check the "No GUI boot" checkbox.

check the "No GUI boot" checkbox.

Hit OK and reboot the computer. You should see the new boot screen immediately on restart.

Keep Learning :)
