The secret behind the XP boot screen

Each time you start Windows XP, a splash screen containing the Windows version number is usually displayed, and it takes a while to enter the desktop. Want to know what the system is doing during this time? In fact, it is very simple, to see the secret behind the boot screen, just modify the BOOT.INI file. 1. Right-click on the "My Computer" icon, select "Properties", open the "System Properties" dialog box, go to the "Advanced" tab, click on "Startup and Recovery" Click the "Edit" button, and then click the “Edit” button in the pop-up form, the system will automatically call Notepad to open the BOOT.INI file under the system disk. 2. Modify the line in the [OPERTING SYSTEMS] section of the file for Windows XP startup, usually at the end with “/fastdetect”, followed by “ /sos” parameter (“/” before a space), save The file, then click “OK" to close all dialogs. 3. Restart the computer, you will find that the original welcome screen disappears, replaced by the system to read files, display system configuration and version information, and check disk partitions at startup. Tip: Since BOOT.INI is hidden and read-only by default, follow the method in step 1. The read-only attribute of the BOOT.INI file will be automatically removed to facilitate modification. Of course, you can also remove its read-only property and edit it with Notepad. However, after such modification, it is recommended to restore the hidden and read-only attributes of this file in time to avoid the file being corrupted and affecting system startup.
