2.  Navigate to :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Background
3.  Double-click the OEMBackground DWORD key
4.  Set value of the key to 1.
5.  Select a background image for Logon Screen with size less than 256KB in size (Use of Image Resize software like VSO Resizer can help)
6.  Copy that image into the
C:\Windows\system32\oobe\info\backgrounds folder
7.  Rename the image to backgroundDefault.jpg
8.  Reboot, and now your logon Image would have changed.
