i want to replace the shell with my DVB application. i want it to restart
this program whenever it is closed. however, it simply doesnt work, when
windows starts i get my custom app, but once closed or crashed i just get a
blank desktop until i go t othe task manager and re-run the app.

i've read everything i can find on the net about this, and so far i can
conclude that this simply doesnt work. despite XP Pro being what, 7 years old
now?

method used:

regedit: HKLM\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon ---
Shell = C:\appdir\app.exe

regedit: HKLM\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon ---
AutoRestartShell=1

what am i doing wrong?
 
Try replacing explorer.exe with your custom shell.

rename explorer.exe explorer.exe.bak,
rename custom.exe explorer.exe.

Please post a report.
