Changing BootUp Screen
I am an experienced PC user, however I am not sure where the following is located in Win98:
When I first turn the PC on the www.dell.com (bmp?) appears prior to the Win98 bmp. I would like to remove the logo so I can see the bootup process of the computer and all the devices. Where is this file located?
Thanks

You don't do this through Win98, but through the BIOS. You can always see the boot-up process by hitting escape. If you want to shut off that Dell logo screen, enter the setup and there should be an option somewhere pertaining the viewing of those boot-up messages. It's been a while since I've been in the setup screen.
Can anyone here help me out? Thanks :)

Hi,
On the recent Dells, enter Setup by pressing the Delete key. Arrow to the Boot tab. Right now Show Boot Time Diagnostics is disabled. Arrow down and enable it. Save the change and exit Setup. The system should now boot without the Dell Globe splash screen.
The Win 98 startup screen is easiest to disable through Tweak UI. You can download that from here, a link provided by Dan B.
Hope this helps,
Kay
