I love to see people fixing problems on their own instead of being lazy and letting everyone else do the work. :)

boot.ini (hidden file usually in C: )


[boot loader]
timeout=3



One can also "fix stuff" with msconfig

With the possible exception of laptops, one sees an XP bootscreen so infrequently, that IMO, it hardly seems worth the bother of customizing it.

The program I was using (BootXP) didn't recognize the Kernal & with StyleXP trying to do it..it always want to convert it to there format 1st...which seemds to cause me problems also..so I just gave up on iy for now.
