To Make the Logon Screen Black/Not Shown

Step 1: Click Start > Control Panel > Display > Desktop
Step 2: Change the wallpaper to None and select the color black

Step 3: Click Start > Control Panel > User Accounts > Change the way users log on or off
Step 4: Uncheck Use the Welcome screen

Step 6: Using the Microsoft Powertoy called Tweak UI, select Logon > Settings
Step 7: Check Colors & Wallpaper and hit Copy Now followed by OK twice

Hint: If you would like to have your logon screen display a picture instead of just a solid color, change your desktop background to the desired picture. Using TweakUI > Logon > Settings, select Wallpaper and click Copy Now. When you reboot, your current picture will be shown while the computer is Auto-Logging In.

Note: If you change your login screen and do not uncheck Use the Welcome Screen, the login screen’s bitmap will still be shown. This could be beneficial but for the purpose of this tutorial, I am going to assume you have not changed your logon screen and am I going to tell you how. Search. It's actually easier to change backgrounds using the hint about and will save some system resources with turning off the Welcome Screen and Fast User Switching (off with W/S). This is what my current logon screen would look like with Use the Welcome Screen checked and Auto Logon set.

Here's a good idea from thanatos106

We should add the way to kill the "windows scheme" (because nobody that is booting directly into the front end wants to hear those).

So the way to do it is going to control panel\sound and audio devices\sounds
and kill all the schemes (global ) by puting "no sounds" in the firts box or killing one by one in the second box.

Take a look at post #16 for a pic that he posted.
