WHAT IS DESKTOP CHANGER?
Bored with seeing the same old Start UP, Wait and Shutdown logos and Wallpaper, and hearing the same start up and shutdown sounds?  Can't decide which one to use?

Desktop Changer allows the Start Up, Wait and Shutdown logos, wallpapers and sounds to be changed automatically when starting up Windows.

FEATURES

•	Any Bitmap with the extension .BMP or .SYS can be used for both logos and wallpaper

•	Preview graphics and WAV files

•	Specify interval between logo / wallpaper / sound changes

•	Global or specific options for Logos, wallpaper and sounds

•	Drag and Drop files from explorer

NB:  Logos require a resolution of 320x400, 256 colours otherwise Windows will not display them.

INSTALLATION
Desktop Changer requires Windows 95.  It will not run under Windows NT correctly.

Run the Setup.EXE program.

When you have chosen some wallpapers, logos etc, press the Change button a couple of times to get the rotation going (will be fixed later).  

If you are using Internet Explorer 4, you must take the active desktop option off for wallpapers to be changed.

If you don't see the wallpapers changing after pressing change button a couple of times - within Display Properties, background tab, do you have "Display Centred" option along with small wallpaper files?!

INSTALLING FROM PREVIOUS VERSION
Before installing, copy all .DAT files where Desktop Changer is currently installed otherwise they will be overwritten while installing this new version.

DISTRIBUTION
This is Freeware, so you can distribute this freely as long as all files are kept together and no charge is made.

If it is put on a CD, write to the above address so the latest version can be included.  A copy of the CD would be appreciated!
