yep, there are a number of utilities that will allow you to do it, but if I remember correctly there is one certain file that you create as a bmp and then rename the extension to sys in the windows/winnt directory...

anyone remember that files name???

I think BootXP is compatible with W2K, at least it says it is. I haven't tried it myself at all but here's a link.

I think they are talking about the splash screen not the logon...

Think that is right link to change the XP Splash, but I think it's shareware...there is a sys. file that can be altered to do the same thing, but I can't remember what it is...dahh
