On my computer, i'm kinda getting annoyed because when I turn on my computer, it comes up to a screen that says the motherboard name and graphics logo. I customized every other part of the computer and want to customize this screen. I have the newest firmware to the BIOS (In case anyone is wondering). Does anyone know how to change that screen?

You probably can with some google searching, but im not so sure this is a very good idea to modify your bios, if you mess it up somehow it could turn out very bad.
Edit: Google is your friend this was like the third entry for custom BIOS http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_change_the_BIOS_bootsplash_screen

i would never change this if i were you. Something goes wrong and you need a new motherboard. Even a bad windows boot screen can cause your computer not to boot...

I've noticed changing the Windows XP boot screen makes a few tabs from System properties to vabish. It's ot a good idea to change the boot screen. As for the BIOS, if you mess it up while modifying the flash rom, you could fry your 'puter.

Okay. I guess that it is a good idea to leave it alone. Thanks for your help.
