Win Server 2008 x64 - should work?

April 4, 2008 2:30:53 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums
I have used LogonStudio on Vista x32 with no problems.  Today, I installed Windows Server 2008 x64 on another PC, and it is virtually identical to Vista - I even use Vista drivers in it.

But LogonStudio does not work.  When I hit apply, it "locks" the machine to show the new logon screen, but it's the same default one.

I realize this may be hard to track down, but I have not found any Vista software yet that does not work on Win  Srv 2K8.  Anyone have an idea what I could look for, maybe a File folder is missing or something? Any way to get mnore data on the failure?

Are you using LogonStudio or LogonVista?  Big difference.

Are there any rules on what JPGs it can use? I wonder if it is having trouble with the dimensions of the picture. This display is 1920 x 1200 and the photo is not, I assumed it would stretch it as I use it as my wallpaper...

Do the default logons work with it?
I've never done anything special for the images I've used.

If you mean the other image/projects that show that I can select and accept, no they do not work either.

Does it work on x64/64 bit machines?

So in summary (with one new thing I thought of), the things that may make my system unique and incompatible with LogonStudio Vista:

1. running on Windows Server 2008, which heretofore has been identical to Vista, even down to the device driver
2. It's a 64 bit system not 32 bit
3. It's a dual monitor system (this is new info)

Is this system compatible? Anything I can do to help test/debug?

Thanks

I have not heard anything back, but I am suspecting this is a problem with Windows Resource Protection in Windows Server 2008 maybe being different/more difficult to crack than Vista.
