Changing the....

[dsfreak]

Hey guys. Ok, I have googled this, and the only thing I could find was the thing I didn't want.

Basically, this is what I want to do. On computers that come from HP (which is what I have), right after the Windows XP Load screen (the one that says Windows XP Home, etc, and has that status bar), and before you get to the logon screen, there is a little image displayed for HP. It doesn't stay on long, but I would really like to change it. Anybody have ANY idea how to?

lol why would you want to change it? i mean my sony blinks its logo and then my intel HT processor blinks its logo before the boot

its not like removing it would increase your start up time..significantly, anyway

I don't want to remove it, I want to change it. Anyhow, I have done it.


Thanks anywayz.

No no, I mean the screen that comes on AFTER the XP loading screen, and before the login screen.

Thats easy, try this:
start/run
type msconfig then enter
then go to start up and check if there is an option there.
Hp etc will have a splash screen program that is exected on startup, simply uncheck the box and go apply.



Or if that doesnt work, try a re-format that will fix it for sure.
if its on the motherboard bios, you need a program to edit it.
Get it from google or pm me.

But your problem is in the software, so try the first stage.
Hope this helps.
