i never saw the boot screen before :blush...can a version be made that's closer to the neowin blue? :D:D:D:D:D

Yes, but someone would have to make it. I may attempt it in the mornin'. But for now... it's 1:30 in the morning and I need my rest. ;) So just sit tight and I'll see what I can do for ya! :D

that's more like it!

but i don't log in...will it automatically change?

also...how do i install them?

You need a program to do it... try this: Changer XP (Changes Boot and Logon Screens in XP)

WOW...i never heard of changer xp! (Y)

COOL...i appreciate anything you do

Well now that I know you like it, let me ask the question... which would you like:

1. The bitmaps so you can patch your own files (or use custom programs)

2. The pre-patched ntoskrnl.exe (a SP1 and Gold Version).

Let me know and I'll get it all ready for you. ;)

I have no idea what's best. I used that changexp program and it did strange things to my computer that too forever to fix. I've never changed a boot or login screen and don't know how to do it.

I DID try the ntoskrnl.exe and ntoskrnlSP.sp that was in neowin.zip and neowinnet.zip (from themexp) and both gave me this error message:

Hmmm... well that's just odd. :/ You may want to read this: How to make a XP Boot Screen :) I think tonight or tomorrow I'll upload those files and post links.

    • Uhm, that's every business ever, though. It doesn't matter if a bajillion users are using it. As long as it's not making bank, it's probably headed for the graveyard.
    • Yeah Patchou was an active member here, good ol' times indeed.
    • Samsung is the new Google... they don't care if millions of people are using it.
    • Still no word on Tides of Annihilation...... so weird that it wasn't shown at the big Game Fest. Guess I'll put it in the bin like Judas and Squadron 42.
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions by David Uzondu Samsung has announced that it is shutting down Samsung Max, its VPN service used by more than 50 million people, effective today. Samsung Max VPN, if you don't know, was an Android app born on February 23, 2018, out of the ashes of Opera Max, a very popular data-saving VPN that Opera had discontinued the previous year. Samsung bought the discontinued service, rebranded it, and added a native Samsung UI to fit the Galaxy ecosystem. The app could do things like compress images, help you manage background data on a per-app basis, reduce video data consumption, shrink music files, optimize webpages, block advertisement trackers in incognito mode, and encrypt your internet traffic on public Wi-Fi networks. Image via SammyGuru If you open the app now, you'd be greeted by a shutdown banner warning that all VPN, data saving, and privacy services stopped functioning on June 15, 2026. The creators failed to provide a reason for the shutdown, instead publishing a farewell note that read: "Thank you for being with us over the years. Your support and activity truly meant a lot to us and helped shape this app into what it became." This same message appears on the Google Play Store listing for the app as well. Max VPN is the latest service from Samsung to join the list of discontinued applications from the company. Just two months ago, the Korean tech giant announced that it is completely shutting down Samsung Messages, forcing millions of users to migrate to Google Messages by next month. The only devices that the shutdown won't affect are older smartphones running Android 11 or lower. Some of the features of Google Messages that Samsung hopes will entice users include AI-powered scam detection to block suspicious links, integrated Gemini AI tools to generate quick replies, custom chat bubbles, and universal RCS compatibility for sharing high-quality media with iOS users. The platform also offers seamless syncing across tablets and smartwatches. In addition to that, users gain access to message scheduling, smart classification, and automated category sorting.
