How Resize XP Splash Screen?

[Guest]

Hello. I saw someone resize the Windows XP Splash screen
on a dell laptop. They made the logo and progress bar
shrink to a much smaller size. I think they did this
while the splash screen was on and I think they pressed
FUNCTION+F8 or maybe ALT+F8??

Is there anyway I can shrink the XP Splash screen on my
home PC that has XP Pro w/ SP2? If so, how do I do it?

Thanks

The Funtion F8 key on a Del, laptop are designed to switch the video display
bet an external monitor, plugged into the external port and the default LCD
laptop screen. This makes the screen display appear smaller on the LCD
screen when used. This would not be available for a desktop system.
