I downloaded a tutorial by Barret and OpenFriday on creating a new boot screen for windows XP replacing the original one by editing the file "ntoskrnl32.exe". I followed completely but my screen will not load. I used Adobe Photoshop CS to edit the images, also, i reconverted them back to indexed color after i was finished. It did not work. I think the reason may be that the color palette is only able to run 8 bit vga graphics or something.. i have since replaced my edited bootscreen thta didnt work with the original XP one which i backed up. Is there perhaps an update to the tutorial i originally used? Basically, what am i doing wrong?
thx in advance for any replies
