win8 Loading Animation background is Motherboard Image

[Swift-R]

I have installed Windows 8 Pro on my machine and now every time I start turn on the computer the Windows 8 loading animation background is the motherboard photo that shows up when I start the pc.

Here's a screenshot:

Is there a fix for this?

Wow thanks, I was looking on google before posting. Should have tried neowin search first.

Anyways, there is a new BIOS which says something about Windows 8, I'll try to upgrade and see what happens.
