Computer won't shut down and parser error

from Stardock Forums

I've just tried to create my first custom XP logon screen, but when I try to apply it, I get the error "value creation failed " at line 18" and then I'm taken to a login screen. After that, the computer refuses to shut down until I restore it to the default. What's up here?

The most common error when people first make logons is to take an image that is a .jpg or .gif and rename it to .bmp, or actually use a jpg or gif in the logon.

All the images must be bitmaps. They can't be another file format renamed.

Line 18 in the uifile refers to bmp 112, the frame that goes around the user name. I'd check that image first. :)

Hi

 

The thing is, I have a similar problem that occured just this morning. The symptoms are the same yet I get error message Parser_ parse error ';' at line 123.

 

In this case the problem does not seem to be the pictures used in winlogon. I have tried the revert back to the default windows log on screen but that didn't take...

I think that there is a problem with the user accounts now...

 

Help???
