changing windows 7 boot sequenceCustom Windows Boot Screen
I'm after changing my win7 boot sequence, I'm looking to overhaul my copy of windows to something not designed to be so boringly plane.The boot screen for 98 can be done with all those, best to have se though since the first edition is really just a cleaned up beta with such little to it, I know as I have from dos 1.1 to windows 8 including windows 1 - 3 series windows 95 - xp series, and even longhorn to 8 series, with server 2000 - 2008/home server. I'm just looking for some ideas on the funny video sequences on vista to 8.

How to change Windows XP boot screenCustom Windows Boot Screen
You can create a boot screen with paint or any other general picture creator.
First, Create your picture (It can only be 16 colors or less)
Once you create the picture, save it to the Windows Directory as boot.Bmp
Next, right click on My Computer or go into control panel and double-click on system, or if you want to be like a pro, press the windows key and Pause/Break keys on your keyboard.
Once you are in the system properties, click advanced and under startup and recovery, click settings.
You will then see default operating system. Under that click the edit button (this will edit your boot.Ini file, so you may want to back it up) go all the way to the end of the line that reads something similar to: multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect ( this may be slightly different for you)
At the end of that line put a space and then type /bootlogo /noguiboot and then save.
You have now created and implemented your own boot screen/txtmngr/images/smileys/smiley4.Gif

chang the windows 98 boot scren Custom Windows Boot Screen
I remember that you can do this manually on Windows 95, 98, 2000, and ME by going to the System / System32 / Windows folder and changing a boot file. That is, you change it to a .bmp extension and opening up with paint - or you can change the bootscreen to another image by changing the name with the correct extension. I don't know what it is but I think it's something like .sys
I would not suggest BootSkins, ThemeXP or StyleXP. I have had them before and it slows down your computer boot time, and really lags it up. Your better off just keeping it the normal boot screen. I strongly suggest you keep the normal one.
Ok then thanks everyone but im not gonna use up my pc running skinning programs becasue i personally dont think it is worth it. I was just wondering because i was on some website and it was offering downloads of boot splashes i guessed it was just about replacing certain files with others in c/windows or something but no problem - thanks anyway.
p.s. i still run windows but i am a linux user to. no point throwing away something ive already paid for - it has some advantages like premier pro.
