finger to keyboard and composed:

... my Compaq puts up a different
startup screen -- just a big, red COMPAQ -- & I have no Logo.sys file in
C:\. And I doubt it altered the one embedded in IO.sys. Therefore, I
believe there is a 3rd mechanism for it (which I haven't ever
discovered).

Look for a HPA or hidden partition. See my first post to this thread.

Is it possible that the Compaq logo is patched into the BIOS? Modern
motherboards (eg Asus, Gigabyte) are supplied with utilities that
allow users to add their own logos and backgrounds to the BIOS.
