Re: Erasing Eval Version Message for Vista 64 SP1 RC?
The 'eval version' will disappear when you finally uninstall the RC and
install the RTM upon its release. In the meantime, it is a useful reminder
that you are running a test version.

Hi Mike,
Well aware of that. I'm simply asking will the patch mentioned below work
to erase the message for Vista 64 as it does for Vista 32. TIA.

Assuming the .DLL is a 32-bit version, then it would not
work in Vista x64.

P.S.
Why not ask the person posting the information? There is a
"Contact" option.

Doubt you will get an answer...the web site you mentioned has "hacked"
copies of Windows files. Quite ballsy of you to ask Microsoft if a
hacked operating system file will work OK to remove their watermark.

Does it really matter though?

Re: Erasing Eval Version Message for Vista 64 SP1 RC?
How about using this newsgroup for questions and answers relating to Vista
and leaving editorial comments which just waste everyone's time out of it.
I need a more stable version of Vista 64 and I need to make presentations
without something inteferring.

Re: Erasing Eval Version Message for Vista 64 SP1 RC?
David,
According to poster BChat, this is how he hid it.
"I have the DreamScene waterfall set as my desktop -
covers the build logo - makes a nice night light too."
See the thread "Vista 64 & sp1 rc 1 v.668" dated Dec 11th.
