BootSkin 1.01

**Reverend** · February 23rd, 2004, 22:16 PM

BootSkin 1.0 is now available for download. BootSkin is a freeware program that allows Windows 2000 and Windows XP users to safely change their Windows boot screens.

While other Windows boot changing programs exist, they have relied on patching the actual Windows XP kernel to change the screen. This can create all kinds of potential problems. BootSkin, by contrast, installs a driver whose only job is to display the boot screen. This allows users to change their boot screens without messing with any system files and keeps the size of boot screen download small (less than 20K typically) since only the actual graphic has to be downloaded.

There are hundreds of replacement boot screens available for BootSkin on websites such as WinCustomize.com.
