moving desktop backgrounds
« on: September 23, 2008, 09:18:02 PM »
Ogar had shown me a place to get moving destop backgrounds for vista.  For the life of me I cannot remember the location.  Can anyone help?  I 'd like to screw around with moving desktops bacgrounds.

Open up a command prompt and type this:

start /B winsat aurora & net stop uxsms & net start uxsms

Make sure you have downloaded Dreamscene from the Ultimate Extras.

I think he meant where can he download them.
That's Mr. Deception to you.

This is where I've gotten them before. As mentioned, you need to have the DreamScene extra for Vista Ultimate.

You can also use any wmv or mpg video file as a background as well, but the wmv files work better than mpg from what I've seen.
Please just walk away. I don't want to have to stand here and say something so awesome that I'll have to remember it the rest of the day. Thank you!

Right.

That is the method to have windows vista run a benchmark test.

Who said anything about a benchmark?

Nobody, I was looking it up and I came across what I mentioned. Turns out it some kind of benchmark utility that you can run in windows vista. It is called WinSat.

Here is the link I previously found but was obviously mistaken:
