Changing boot skins in XP
Tuesday, April 14, 2009 by moebob24 | Discussion: Tutorials
I just downloaded a boot skin and realized I don't have a clue on how to install it. I am guessing that it is in some system folder.
Any help is greatly apreciated. Thanks

There's more than 1 version of bootskin so if it don't work try another,it's below the two d/loads at the link boss gave,as for install of bootskins just double tap the skin you want installed,if it's a folder just put it in the skins folder of BS
Only compat issues is whether or not BS works with your version of BIOS or not if your lucky one of them will

some people have never gotten any version to work
some people have no trouble getting any version to work
some people found installing one version over the other caused it to work
some people found installing one version over the other caused more work
just in case it BSODs on you, remember this:
boot into safe mode and remove \windows\system32\drivers\vidstub.sys.
