devil270975 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 it is possible to move the progress bar, i know cus i have done it, BUT and it is a big BUT you can only move it up or down and how you do it is by increasing/decreasing the font size of the text on the left, mainly the setup will complete in blah and then using blanks for the text, i must stress though that it is not very accurate and you can get some indesirable results - ie progressbar missing completely off the bottom of the screen, oh yeah nearly forgot, the height of the progressbar is in relation to the font size, so big font = tall progressbar. i have since reverted back to leaving it well alone, i just wanted to prove a few people wrong.edit syssetup.dll to do it, cant remember the exact lines to edit as i tried it months ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsenellenelvian Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 There is a program called boot editor that allows you to click and drag the progress bar up and down to place it where you want then you just save.P.S. it is also freeware.

Refuse_ Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 in the i386\system32 dir on the installation media there is a file calles smss.exeWhile is was editting this file i found the progress bar here.So maybe you can edit and/or change size here.I don't think you can set the location of the progress bar with the smss.exe.I haven't editted the progress bar myself yet so i don't know the outcome.Hope this is of any use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
