Default startup and shut-down pictures

Three files, they may be hidden if you have that option set in Explorer,
comprise the start and shutdown screens. Logo.sys (start screen) is in the
C:\ directory either as its own file or it is imbedded in the io.sys file.
The imbedded file displays unless there is an actual logo.sys file present
in which case it displays. The logow.sys (wait screen) and logos.sys (shut
off screen) are located in the C:\Windows folder. Remove the later two
files and the first one if it is not the imbedded one to a safe place so you
don't overwrite them. Replacement screens must be in a .bmp format, be
sized or resized to 320 X 400 X 256 colors and renamed as the appropriate
screen name. Animated Logo info:
