Splash screen Win 98se by
John Callaway
How do I change the windows 98 splash size screen during bootup? It
currently takes up the whole screen and I just want it to be small.
Also it seems to take a long time going through this part of the
bootup. System is 500 p3 processor with 576 mb ram. Any ideas?
