Description
This Windows 7 Boot Animation is Tony Stark's (a.k.a. Iron Man's) arc reactor powering up. The original image comes from apophis906 of droidforums.net, and the animation and formatting for Win7 are from me. Enjoy!Related content

can you upload this as a gif so it can be used with 8oot Logo Changer for windows 8?

I don't think so. I can't even get 8oot Logo Changer to install on my computer (it says it's done installing, but the application is nowhere to be found), but from the documentation, it seems like it only uses 6 frames for the animation. In contrast, Windows 7 (and therefore this animation) uses 105 frames. So unless you want only 5% of the animation, it can't be done XD . Sorry.

Yea I found out that the windows 8 bootres.dll is just the windows logo you can change in 8oot logo changer. Tried putting a windows 7 bootres.dll on my w8 machine and it couldnt even boot. So i can just take an image off google images and make that the boot loader image.
Then it has this other problem where the image is too small. It can only have the image be tiny which looks like shit. So im just keeping the default.

Bootres is more than just the logo; it contains other startup processes that Windows calls. In addition, it's designed to load 6 frames, not 105, so you can't just drop-in a Windows 7 DLL. Sorry.

Everytime i try to install it, the program stops working.. haven't rebooted since, as i'm afraid it wont boot.. pls help...

Yeah, people have had a lot of trouble with the installer. You should instead use the .bs7 file within the Win7 Boot Updater found here: [link]
Try to boot up your computer. If it gets stuck in recovery, you need to follow the instructions on this page to fix it: [link]
After that, just use the .bs7 file instead of the installer and you should have no problems anymore.

I need the original "winload.exe" - i can't uninstall it with your executable or win7 boot updater.

In the boot updater, go to Options->Restore Backups.

I ran the installer bit now I cannot load any other custom boot screen or uninstall this one because each time it says that it failed. I don't know if this is related to the custom boot screen but I can't uninstall or install anything else either and my internet stopped working, and my PC never shuts down. It just stays on the "Shutting Down..." screen.

That's very strange. It shouldn't have any effect on your Internet or your ability to install/uninstall anything. In fact, I can't see how it COULD affect that. As for saying the new boot screen installation failed, try going to Options->Restore Backups (in the boot updater program) and then you should be good to go to install a new one

Very cool. It worked well when I installed the arc reactor, but I got this error when trying to install your triangle animation. Any idea what this is and/or what a workaround could be?

I'm not sure. That's quite the error xD . Did you try installing it using the Win7Boot Updater program instead of the installer? I know the installers aren't always the most stable...

People seem to be having a lot of trouble with the installer programs. So instead, download Win7 Boot Updater from coderforlife.com/projects/win7boot and load the .bs7 file from there. It should be a smoother process.

Is it an image or a short loop movie?

What do you mean Virus? Its 100% Clean, if just Run it as Admin
π: 0 β©: 1
It's...well, kind of both xD . It's a short movie I made in After Effects, but the final format needed for Windows is actually a gigantic BMP file (a 200x2100 strip of 105 frames, each 200x200). So I just export the movie from After Effects as a PNG sequence, and Win7 Boot Updater can load the PNGs and convert them into a boot animation. Older versions of Boot Updater didn't work well with PNGs, so I used to use Game Maker to convert the PNGs into a strip, then Paint to make the strip vertical. It was a lot more work "back in the day"

The bs7 file is all you need. It goes in the Windows 7 Boot Updater found here. [link]
The exe file is probably the virus and you don't even need it so don't run it.

Explain how the bs7 file works with the Windows 7 Boot Updater program when it doesn't even see it. I've used it for a while and it does not use that kind of file for anything with the Windows 7 Boot Updater program.

Make sure you're using the newest version of Boot Updater--the older versions did not support .bs7 files. In the program, go to File->Load Bootskin, and choose the .bs7 file from there.

Okay. You either didn't actually open the Windows 7 Boot Updater and try to browse for the file or you're talking about a totally different program.
Here you go. [link]

That's strange. I could have sworn I used bs7 files with that program. It was quite a bit ago. I just know the bs7 file is the actual boot screen. Oh well.

Why is it in .exe format, it should be a .bmp (single or 105 images). I ran it through 6 dif virus scanners on 6 systems and all flagged it as a virus.
π: 0 β©: 2
I have no idea why it would be registered as a virus (except maybe because it modifies system files to install the animation). But it's an EXE because CoderForLife's Win7 Boot Updater program now exports animations as .exe self-installing files.
I don't have much experience with the installer files, but I thought it would make it easier on people who don't want to download the Boot Updater program. It seems many people are having multiple issues with the installers, though, so my next boot animation will go back to just using the 105-frame raw animation.
In the meantime, just use the .bs7 files and load them into Win7 Boot Updater. I don't think those have any issues.
