You can create your own Windows pop-up text after starting up your computer.  This pop-up text might read some legal warning, such as, “Use this computer only if you are the rightful owner.”  Or if you need to set up your computer as part of a company network and display a corporate disclaimer message.

Here’s how to execute this small technical project:

1. Click on Start->Run and type in regedit, and hit enter.
2. Then, go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->Microsoft->Windows->CurrentVersion->policies->system
3. After left-clicking system, you’ll find legalnoticecaption and legalnoticetext on the right-hand side.
4. You can right-click each of the legalnoticecaption and legalnoticetext and left-click modify to input your customized message.
