Display a Text Message During Bootup of Windows 7

Sometimes you might want to leave a text message for a user before they log into a Windows 7 computer. Today we show you a neat trick that allows you to leave a message they can read before logging in.
Add a Text Message

Add a Text Message To add a message, click on Start and enter regedit into the Search box and hit Enter.
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Policies\System and double-click on legalnoticecaption.
n the Value data field enter in the header you want…for instance your company name or the name of your computer…whatever you want it to be, then click OK.
Then double-click on legalnoticetext …
And in the Value data field enter in the message you want to display and click OK. Close out of Registry Editor and reboot the computer.
After the machine reboots you’ll see the text message you just created at the Welcome screen. Enjoy and have fun xD ^_^
