Startup/Shutdown Screens
Startup/Shutdown screens are system files that are pictures that show up when your system shuts down and starts up. Most of you have a computer which starts up with the Windows 95 or 98 logo. You can change these by searching online for startup/ shutdown screens.
Wulfert.com and provides many startup and shutdown screens for your creative needs.
Many of these files come in a zip format. You will need either
 or to unzip these files. Just follow the directions Go!Zilla and/or Winzip tell you to unzip files. Go!Zilla puts files into a "Download" file on the desktop. Winzip puts files into an "unzipped" folder in the C drive. After they are unzipped, go to the folder using windows explorer. The files should be named the following: logo.sys, logos.sys, and logow.sys. They should all be either 126 or 127 kb.
To have these screens work correctly you must copy and paste these files into the following appropriate folders:
logo.sys: C drive directly or the letter for your drive if not C.
logow.sys and logos.sys: C:\Windows
If the files are improperly named: Ex. superman.sys, supermans.sys, and supermanw.sys, you will have to rename them - (superman.sys would become logo.sys and so on.)
If there are files already named logo.sys, logos.sys, and logow.sys in these folders, which there probably are, you will have to move or rename these files. To make it easier to keep track of logo files, I put each set into a new folder and rename the folder the name of the group. These files you are replacing represent how your computer currently starts up and shuts down. If you need more help click dmaeurer@nyc.rr.com.
