Great Simon! try a dark blue instead

Just try a blue instead of that "strange purple"

Cool Idea with the background etc. BUT: You only have to make a Bitmap and change the boot.ini. U dont Have a progress-bar then but u dont change the kernel itselt. So when a Hotfix from MS changes it, u still have your bootscreen but the newest kernel.

PS: Don't remember the switch for the boot.ini to use the bitmap but i think it was /BOOTLOGO or something and the bitmap has to be in %WINDIR%. Try it out...

yep, thats it. Gonna check it though. Thanks Injecter.

NP! And BTW: If you do the /BOOTLOGO option, then there is no progress bar. And you can't make it visible.

PS: I think the switch then would be: /BOOTLOGO XPIZED.BMP

PPS: I would make 8.3-Filenames... who knows if Win (in this stage) can use longer filenames.

PPPS: And i would use BIG LETTERS because i don't know, the switches are big too

@Aaron_, so can you point me into the right RGB blue direction

Hi SiMoNsAyS, I really like your job. (your logon especially)

Well, I can propose some colors:

Left blue RGB -> (60,115,198)

Right blue RGB -> (7,62,145)

I prefer the clear one

Hope you like them.

hmm read his post one more time....

pass = itsme_4ucz@MFSN

I would like that one without the Progressbar, without the "Reloaded", without the "Professional" and without the MS and Copyright stuff... But the background looks nice!

for the boot logo you are right about the /bootlogo switch but you have to have a 16bit image using the same palette as the ntkrnl*.exe and I believe it has to be 640x480 also

here is an example of my boot.ini

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\OS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\OS="Nlite OS" /noexecute=alwaysoff /fastdetect /bootlogo /noguiboot

EDIT: The filename has to be boot.bmp and it is put in %windir%
