Splash screen on Start up

Forum Windows 95/98/ME : General Discussion Splash screen on Start up

General Discussion

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion (More info?)

Hello,
When I start Windows 98 I have a picture that shows up until I log on to the
network. I'm assuming this is some kind of Windows splash screen. The
question is, can I change it?
Thanks,
Melinda

It's more likely the default user profile wallpaper that is in effect
until you login to your user account, and thus assert your profile's
settings - including your choice of wallpaper.

Actually it was much simpler than all of that. I had to turn off active
desktop. This made the picture go away. Thanks for all the replies! I
might have to change the real splash screen now!
