    Right. Sorry my big error (fail)
    Perhaps when I have copied command.com and changed his version I've also copied io.sys and msdos.sys but I don't remember this :(
    where are this tools to change it? :? :? :?

    From what I can remember that theres two SYS files that have the logos. One for Startup and one for Shutdown. I know logo.sys is for the startup logo. For the shutdown its logow.sys. In windows 3.x theres a file in the Windows System directory. The io.sys is just the Input / Output command file. That's the little file that has the DOS commands and error lists.

    But if you delete the logo*.sys files Windows still shows the logoz, I remember running across some utility that edited them in IO.SYS.

    The files for windows 3.x is called vgalogo.rle....you can easily changed that in Jasc Paint Shop Pro 3.0 and maybe Paint.

    Thanks but don't resolve the probleme.
    I want to change original logo stored and non add a new logo using logo.sys.
    My is a curiosity I want know this lol
  • BlueSunBlueSun
    The default logo is stored in io.sys. logo.sys overides the default logo... you maybe be able to get an editor to change the logo stored in io.sys but i don't know of any. anyways other then curiosity for doing it why do you want to?

    Ok :)
    Is much time that I try to understand this thing and google or other search engine don't help me. For this reason I go to various forums but noboby have solution.
    No problem, sooner or later I will find the solution hoping that win98 will not disappear definitively exceeded by other systems :(

  • DevilsJim89DevilsJim89
    Yep...thats the way to learn, by trial and error....thats how I learned about computers and it helped me for future knowledge.
  • BODBOD
    thats how i learnt how computers worked... just messing around with the settings, if didnt know what something was i just googled it...

    Right there is a logo in command.com and win.com as it is for Win3.1. China DOS Union however did change it and they wont give away their secret.

    Just if we know how to do that.. that would be nice. Logo.sys as some said it is just to personalized it. The REAL logo is stored in command.com/win.com

    Regards
  • nighticenightice
    Methinks you can use a hex editor to scan for an RLE header to find the logo.
  • SlashSlash
    That's right, nightice. I always knew that.
    I haven't seen this thread before!
