The Logo.sys (startup screen) is embedded into the io.sys file.
To replace it create a new .bmp image (as described in my
previous post to you) and place it in the root directory of C:\

The logos.sys is a hidden file located in the C:\windows folder.
Did you set your system to view hidden files?

Note: To view hidden files in Windows 98, click Folder Options
on the View menu in Windows Explorer, click the View tab, click
Show All Files, and then click OK.
Also make sure that the "Hide Extensions for Known File Types"
is deselected. This will help you in locating the files in Explorer.

Thanks all.
I could change logos.sys which appeared as my "Shut down" screen, but I
could find no logo.sys or logow.sys in my WinMe folder.

How can I change windows splash screen?

Thank you

I saw some persons who had changed the appearance of their windows Start
screen or Shut down screen. For example when shutting down, instead of
seeing the message of "Windows is now shutting down" I saw a "Good
Night"
message with a beautiful picture.

I asked one of them about how he did this. He thought a little and then
said
I used "Microsoft Multimedia". I don't know either he was right or he
just
didn't want to tell me the truth, but I have never seen a software called
"Microsoft Multimedia".

Do you know how we can change the start and shut-down pictures?

Thank you
