LOGO.SYS FOR WINDOWS ME
RIDOLFI SIMONE
ABOUT TWO MONTH AGO I BOUGHT WINDOWS ME AND I IMMEDIATELY HAD A LITTLE
PROBLEM THAT I HOPE YOU'LL HELP ME TO SOLVE IT.
CERTAINLY YOU REMEMBER THAT IN WINDOWS 95/98 WAS ENOUGHT TO REDUCE A FILE
BMP AND CHANGE ITS EXTENSION IN SYS SO THAT CAN BE VISUALIZED THE STARTUP,
WAIT AND SHOTDOWN FILES.
UNFORTUNATELY THE SAME TRICK CAN'T BE USED ALSO FOR WINDOWS ME.
I TRIED TO SUBSTITUTE THE FILES SYS(LOGO.SYS LOGOW.SYS LOGOS.SYS),BUT IT
SHOWS ME ONLY TWO FILES (OF THREE), THAT OF START AND THAT OF STOP.
WHAT CAN I DO TO VISUALIZE ALL THREE FILES IN WINDOWS ME?
I HOPE THAT YOU'LL CAN HELP FURNISHING ME THE NAME OF A PROGRAM, OF A WEB
SITE OR OTHER KINDS OF MATERIAL.
I IN ADVANCE THANK ANYONE WILL HELP ME I ASK YOU TO SEND ME (IF POSSIBLE)
THE ANSWER ON E-MAIL TO THIS ADDRESS: prot...@infinito.it
THANKS FOR ALL
Thorsten Matzner

1. The Logo change works the same way as in Windows 9x. Create a BMP
file of the size 320 * 400 pixels and with 256 colors. You can use
Paint or a better picture editor for that. Save this file in the root
folder C:\ as LOGO.SYS. It will be used instead of the standard logo.
You may want to create a copy of the LOGOW.SYS in the WINDOWS folder
to start with this. This file contains the shutdown logo and already
has the correct size and color setting.
2. LOGOS.SYS is gone in Windows ME.
