What version of ntoskrnl do you have?

[cro-man]

Try this one:

MediaFire

NtoskrnlVersion: 5.1.2600.2180 (xpsp_sp2)

Preview:

This Boot screen was made with 16 colors , therefore it looks in such a way.

Replace the original Ntoskrnl.exe with the new one.You can make that with this litle tool:

REPLACER.zip

Replacer is an easy to use system file replacer for 2K/XP. It is used to safely replace protected or in-use system files.

Good Luck!

did it work ?

[monoxide]

yea but i sent it to a friend and it messed his pc up some how.

[cro-man]

Details ?

[monoxide]

he would turn on his pc and it would get to the boot screen and it would restart back to the bios even in safe mod so i gave him a live xp cd and i think he fixed it

Hi,

Some new screens :

Boot.ini looks now in such a way:

[boot loader]

timeout=30

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS

[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional (Boot-Logo)" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /KERNEL=NTOSBOOT.EXE

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect

Now you can boot from the replaced bootscreen ( BOOT LOGO) or your original bootscreen.

To change the bootscreen just copy the NTOSBOOT in C:/Windows 32 , and replace the boot.ini in C:/ Windows.

Boot.ini is attached in each NTOSBOOT folder

On the original Notskrnl you don`t need to change anything .(Not need to rename or remove it.)

Only the Boot.ini must be modified or replaced
