Bootscreen not working anymore

[mritter]

First off.....are there any better bootscreen editors besides:

• BootEditor
  
• LogonUIRandomizer
  
• BootSkin
  
• Screen Booty
  

I got Boot Editor to work originally, but it is very unstable and crashes alot. But now my boot screen will not work. All I changed was drawing some black over part of the image I didn't want anymore.

BE never cmplained about the palette being out of order, now it does. Says second color must....something.

Anyway, I have now gone through all the above programs and still can't it to work again. BootSkin can do it correctly, but where is the file it creates???

What happens is either:

• It starts to load, shows my bootscreen, then locks up with screen still showing
  
• Shows my bootscreen, screen goes blank, then locks up
  

I have tried not modifying the palette, ModifyPE and MakeCab (when just calling it ntoskrnl.exe for testing (normally use singkrnl.exe)), no modifications or all my normal Windows' moifications (nLite and RyanVMs addons), still not luck.

I am pulling my hair out! It worked for a week, "erased" one little section, re-made the file, doesn't work.

I am open to any alternative to Boot Editor. BootSkin is too limited to their style of boot screens, so, nah....

Thanks
