need to change "Starting Windows" on boot

[crabdance]

I would like to change the text/image that says "Starting Windows" when Windows 7 first starts. I don't want to change the animation, just the text. Does anyone know how to do this?

any help is appreciated.

A quick search on Google reveals this YouTube video. I have not done it myself, so can't vouch for the procedure. Also, there are comments to the video, which seem to be relevant to you.

Also, check out this thread.

There is probably a way but really I'm wondering why, it only stays there a few moments. IMHO it is risky changing things when first booting unless that option is a built in part of the O/S.

Welcome

It has been my experience that a large number of problems have been caused by trying to improve the system. My advice would be to enjoy what you have, rather than to take a chance of causing a much more serious problem.

Changing things during startup can cause major problems in your system. I wouldn't do it, rather change the logon screen text where it says your windows version. I think theres a tutorial somewhere on these forums.
