Hi!
I know that this is WAY off-topic, but I need some help:
While "cleaning up" some files on his computer my dad accidentally deleted
the "LOGO.SYS" file. Now when he has no splash screen when booting. All
that's shown is the startup commands and the BIOS settings of the computer.
He wants me to fix it, but the only problem is that he doesn't have the
Windows '98 CD (came pre-loaded on the computer).
What I want to know is if anyone running Windows '98 could email me the
logo.sys file (I think it's only 120k or something close to that).
ThAnX!

Thought about it for an instance and decided "keep your eye on the throttle and

Of course not. That would be copyright infringement.

If it came pre-loaded on the machine (as opposed to being on the machine
when he got it from someone else), you should find all the windows files
necessary to re-install Windows in C:/windows/options/cabs. I believe the MS
PowerToys will allow you to retrieve just the file(s) you want.

Not that it really matters, it's just a BMP file with SYS attributes.
Replace it with ANY BMP, rename it to logo.sys and attrib +s it. There's
another copy in c:\windows or c:\windows\system in case you delete the
original, I believe. I did this on one of the machines at my church and it
really freaked them out (took the image & inversed, rasterized, etc.)

After sifting through the overwritten remaining blocks of Luke's
home directory, Luke and PDP-1 sped away from /u/lars, across the surface
of the Winchester riding Luke's flying read/write head. PDP-1 had Luke stop
at the edge of the cylinder overlooking /usr/spool/uucp.
"Unix-to-Unix Copy Program;" said PDP-1. "You will never find a
more wretched hive of bugs and flamers. We must be cautious."

I'd be thankful. Most people, myself included, use TweakUI to make it go
away....
