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

    Hats off to you.

    I'm scared of playing around with my boot screen. I don't now why. I change my login but never boot.

    boot.ini (hidden file usually in C: )

    Code:
    [boot loader]
    timeout=3


    One can also "fix stuff" with msconfig

    Spoiler: Show

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

    I used to change my Bootcereen often with SP1..but with XP2..it made it harder & colors are different.
