How to Change boot screen in windows xp

-->
Softwares required:
  1. Boot skin
  2. Theme Manager


Other Requirement
  1. *.bmp file (Screen image’s Properties: 640x480, 4-bit, 16 colors palette,*.bmp)
  2. *.ini file

Creating ini file:


We will now attempt to make the script we want to use for our Bootskin. The whole process will take place in Notepad or Object Edit and MS Paint.


Script’s Properties: File type of .ini.



1. The actual script is very simple. It consists of ten lines of properties code.



2. You open Notepad or Object Edit and write down the following code or copy/paste it exactly as given:



[BootSkin]

Type=

Name= ""

Author= ""

Description= ""

Screen=

ProgressBar=

ProgressBarX=

ProgressBarY=

ProgressBarWidth=



3.
Explanatory guide for each field:



- [Bootskin] : This indicates for which program is the code for.

- Type= : I’m not sure what is the use for this. But the value is always 0.

- Name= "" : Within the quotation marks you put the name of your skin.

- Author= "" : Within the quotation marks you put the name of the creator/your name.

- Description= "" : Within the quotation marks you write down a brief description for your skin.

- Screen= : This is where you write down your screen image’s filename.

- ProgressBar= : This is where you write down your progress bar image’s filename.

- ProgressBarX= : The x-value where the right top angle of your progress bar image’s will be placed. This is a value that tells at which x-pixel of the screen image will the progress bar be placed. Note: x-y are used as in a graphical histogram.

- ProgressBarY = : The y-value where the right top angle of your progress bar image’s will be placed. This is a value that tells at which y-pixel of the screen image will the progress bar be placed. Note: x-y are used as in a graphical histogram.

- ProgressBarWidth = : The width that you wish your progress bar to be. Note: This is not the progress bar image’s width (22 pixels) but the distance you want your progress bar image to travel within the picture.



4. Example of complete script for better understanding:



[BootSkin]

Type= 0

Name= "Genesis Aftermath"

Author= "Cyberworld"

Description= "At the dawn of the new light..."

Screen= Genesis Aftermath Screen.bmp

ProgressBar= Genesis Aftermath Progress Bar.bmp

ProgressBarX= 115

ProgressBarY= 436

ProgressBarWidth= 475
5. When the script is ready save it as "bootskin.ini" from Notepad or Object Edit in the same directory with your screen and progress bar images.
