gmx Posted August 3, 2004 Posted August 3, 2004 how to change the color of text mode setup screens or is there a way to overlay a bitmap while setup is chugging around in the background... any suggestions or ideas?
big_gie Posted August 3, 2004 Posted August 3, 2004 I don't think its possible. But why do you bother? Its just there for about 20 seconds...Or did you meant the GUI like this?
SiMoNsAyS Posted August 3, 2004 Posted August 3, 2004 i think that he wants to overwrite the blue/white setup screen on the early installation of xp. i'm sure this must be possible because if the command prompt can have other colors in xp why not the setup command line?? but i do not know how
Alanoll Posted August 3, 2004 Posted August 3, 2004 because changing the setup screen color (the initial part of setup) would require hex editing a few core setup files. It gets kinda nasty. It's hardcoded into the files.
gmx Posted August 3, 2004 Author Posted August 3, 2004 did you meant the GUI like this?noi think changing color of textmode color screen should b possible.smss.exe i think is the file that should hexed [thats where i changed some of the text].. i'm pretty sure its only one file... dont know where to look for tho
