Question changing default startup & shutdown screens
Hi,

I have just been reading some info on how to change the default shutdown and startup screens as I want to make Windows abit more interesting and more customized!

It say's you must modify logos.sys & logow.sys which I am very comfortable doing, I will back them up first! The only thing is that I have logos.sys but I have no (logow.sys) My question is, how would I go about creating one from scratch or is there any way I can install it again from the Windows CD?

I have made a custom shutdown screen that works but now I want a custom startup screen, does anyone have any ideas on how to make or get this logow.sys file I need?

Thanks for your help

Nester

Sorry, I forgot to say that I am using winME if that would help.

Check this program out. Not sure if it will work with ME. If ME has a Logo.sys file it should work.
