The title says it all. Thanks in advance for any/all help you guys and gals can give. If any of you have info on adding info and/or graphics to system properties, that would also be greatly appreciated. Hmmm... now that I'm thinking of it, any info on changing the engergy-star logo on abit boards would be great too!

THANKS BUNCHES!

C:\windows\logos.sys

That's for the shut down logo, don't remember the rest, sorry :(

I believe the Abit e-star is BIOS written, unchangable. Maybe someone can refute that though?

don't know about NT/2000, but in Win 98, the startup logo is c:\logo.sys . The "Windows is shutting down" screen is c:\windows\logow.sys , and "it is safe to turn off computer" is c:\windows\logos.sys . They can be whatever you want as long as they are 320x400, 256 color.

and the system properties information should be in c:\windows\system\oeminfo.ini , and the pic should be c:\windows\system\oemlogo.bmp
