    Hi all fellows,
    I want to modify my “Windows XP Boot Screen”
    But
    Want a modification in my uninstalled source. ? (Which is save in my hard drive)
    Not after installing the windows.
    Can I do this?
    Because I saw may windows saying pirate addition, etc. if they can do then why I can’t?

    Please help me in this way.
    Always regards
    Waiting

    Ahoy ye matey, shiver me timbers, have ye plundered something from the mighty Captain Bill have we? You know that he will dispatch a fast cutter to shanghai yer butt, keel haul you then force you to watch Barney videos in the bilge until you claw yer eyes out eh?
    We can't help you get rid of the pirated version of windows screen, but I think you can buy a copy on Fleabay or in a brick and mortar store somewhere.

    This is what i want,

    In the market available some version , like Pirates edition, Black edition etc.
    when u install those, they shows above names (which i mentioned) at Boot screen, we have no need to change them this is already done with windows.

    Now i want to change this thing in my uninstalled source, when ever i installed the windows in my pc or other pc no need to change every time boot screen. ?
    I hope i convey which i think.
    (Apology for any inconvenience about language/vocabulary)

    always regards
    waiting.

    What you want is a program to change your boot.ini file. There are no versions of Windows like that. It's just that they have used programs to hack the boot.ini. No, I won't tell you how to do it. You can use Google like I did.

    He is referring to hacked/pirated versions of Windows XP available from who knows where loaded with all sorts of Zombieware. Many of these "alternative" versions of windows have added features, like backdoors and the likes. Install at your own risk. I'm done with this one.

    He is not referring to a pirated version of windows xp what he is saying is that he has seen boot screens that say windows xp pirated edition. HERE is a good place to start if you want a safe way to change the screen quickly and easily.

    I don't know if the above pics are real examples of boot screens, they're just out of my shoutbox; i collected those for posts where people ask for pirated software, my subtle hint at telling them to bugger off :)
    I experimented with different boot screens more years ago than i care to remember, it's pointless these days as i hibernate most of my machines thus i very rarely even see the boot screen. These days i just choose different boot screens/dashboards on my old xboxes.

    Yeah, they are real, put one on the kids computer. You can even design your own GUI for windows if you have the inclination.
