    Changing the background in MDT2013 has no effect.
    I even try to overwrite the default image, still not working.
    I have update the deployment share and restart the server as well…

      Hi Frank, At Windows PE Customizations you have to choose the wallpaper you want to change and update deployment share to apply same.
      Please double check all the steps.

      Thanks
