Annoying splash screen on remote desktop

If you are the proud owner of a Dell server you may have already found that running a remote desktop or terminal service session to it requires that the Dell desktop image has to load before you can log on. This is a pretty big file so it slows things down to an annoying level and you may want to get rid of it - here's how.

Log on to the machine and run regedit. Browse to the following key:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop

Look for the String Value "Wallpaper" and either delete it completeley, delete the value or replace the value with a smaller bitmap file reference.

This will get rid of it and next time you log on - no more waiting.

This fix has been posted on numerous sites by numerous people - my thanks to those that posted before me. I figure the more people posting the easier for others to find a fix and that's what it's all about right?
