Hello Everyone... haven't been to this forum since 2002... seems like a while ago.

Anyways I'm having some trouble with Winblows when its booting up it gives me a sreen that looks like this:

instead of this:

It loads into windows fine and everything still works great, so maybe some joker hacked my comp or something...

I tried using a few bootscreen changing utilities, but no dice, no matter what I change the boot screen too it still displays that ugly IBM OS/2 Warp boot screen.

Any ideas on how to fix it?

Edit: Looks like its time to change my avatar... computers have gotten faster since '02

it looks like they replaced the ntoskrnl.exe, see if they made a copy or try StyleXP - http://www.tgtsoft.com/ - its great!

edit: thats a nice boot logo though! OS2, haven't used that in a while!
