WinXP Boot Logo is Off-screen

[mphartzheim]

Okay, for some reason the WinXP boot logo isn't displaying properly as my system boots up. The logo is severly stretched and distorted, and is barely peaking out from the bottom of my display. (I can see most of the Red "window" at the top of the logo, and that's about it.)

This system is a brand new install, and the problem did not occur until after I had upgraded my video drivers.

It's not affecting anything performance-wise, the system still boots up in about 30 seconds.

Any idea what's caused it or how to fix it?

Im wondering if it might be a default refresh rate issue.

You can probbably fix it by uninstalling all video drivers then reinstalling them.

Sounds like your monitor is not adjusted to display that resolution / refresh rate correctly. Hard to tell w/o seeing though, if it's really bad it could be something else, otherwise:

Set your desktop screen resolution and refresh rate to 640x480x256colors and 60Hz (under advanced settings).
Adjust monitor to display image correctly.
Save Settings on monitor.

Then set desktop resolution back to what you had before.
