This is an alternative to my previous post....It was really tough finding out where the start was in the Hex part..so i came up wid this post to help u and learn more abt tweaking...
Now ,You can download resource hacker, a very useful tool in tweakin windows...
Always create a backup..An illegal operation may cause a windows crash so beware...
Now open ur explorer with this reshac.exe.
This is how a resource hacker looks when an explorer file being opened....This software is used in various hackin...you will see in the upcomin posts...
Now u hav to move to StringTable 38-1033....
and in that "Start",You hav to replace it by ur desired name...
Now if you are really tired by seeing that "click to start",you can change it by moving to String table 34-1033,you can save ur work and then move to regedit and do as mentioned in the above post...

Windows Tweaking........part 1
Normal is always boring....
A normal microsoft windows start button is shown.....If you had a thought to tweak or customize ur windows wat wud u do?
Always remember that when u opearate ur PC, you should control the PC and not the vice-versa...
Now how to customize ur start button...
Few steps to change ur "start" to any 5 letter word...
All u need is just a Hex-editor ( this is a free- ware available )
Step 1:
All u need to do is just go to your windows drive and copy ur explorer.exe.......Place it in 2 or more drive 1 for back up and the other one to be modified...change one of the name to explorer1.exe
Step 2:
Now having changed the name, open the explorer1.exe with the help of the Hex editor....
If you are using the enhanced windows ,you will get the offset value as 412b0....it also depends
on the service pack u use....
Step 3:
you hav to just change the ascii value to ur desired 5 letter word...if you dont know the ascii value just move the cursor to start click on s and change it to the alphabet which u like...you hav to change it only in this place...dont use find and replace since it replaces all ...Now u hav to save this explorer1.exe in the windows drive itself...
Step 4:
All you need to do now is change the work and close the editor...Now go to regedit using run..
and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon and find the key shell.....After u find this just right click and modify to the filename in which u hav modified and saved....
Step 5:
Now u hav to reboot ur computer to open the modified explorer....
Thus u can change ur start .....

isnt steve job amazing....
Its 2 min to 12 to start a fresh morning and i am writing this blog...this post just tells wat i did for the past one hour....1 hr before i was really bored and was just lookin for videos on iphone(a really cool gadget)...then i saw some one demonstrating abt that stuff...that someone was none other than the CEO of apple & pixar graphics it was Steve Jobs...then i thought why not learn abt his biography...again i typed in my toolbar Steve jobs...as usual a bunch of lists was placed on my screen.then i saw one link the title was "Steve jobs graduation in stanford university"..i clicked on that link...for the next 14 min i was really amazed by this person...
At first i thought him to be a normal programmer who is good in coding and all those stuff but later i found that he is one of the person who discontinued from the richest stanford universtiy learnin the first 6 months on 3 years...he actually didnt know what to do....his mom wanted him to be a doctor...but he was without any specific aim...he spent many months useless...then one day he started learning abt typography( a language related to spacing of fonts and all abt that).he never knew what he was gonna do...
After 10 years...he learnt a bit of computer..and started writing a code for an OS....this OS is nothing but MAC OS...He was the genuine person to introuduce the concept of multitypology...He says that windows just copied from them..All wat he learnt discontinuing his college helped him a lot...the story is not yet over....they start a company by name apple...after some years recruiting some trusted members....the vision gets diverged, that is his idea dint suit with a crew of 30 board of directors so he gets fired from his own company(cant believe this0??
this is an other shock for one of CEO who build this company..then with a handful of members he started a company by name PIXAR, a graphics oriented company..Due to his hardwork and innovative talents this company becomes the best graphic company of the world...
Wat happens next is that the members from apple come again an offers him the job...
cant believe this...u hav to....
