Hi Guys, I'm ronaldo, I just installed windows XP in the virtualbox, so I'm customizing it, with themes, icons and etc. then I'm in doubt, then is there any way to change the bootscreen that looks like this?

Maybe you can also try to extract that Whistler 2493 Server bootscreen and use it in regular Windows XP build, but I don't know if it works.

Such as taking the bitmaps from the ntoskrnl.exe and importing it. I remember trying to do that one time 2 years ago in 2018 for a experiment!

I'm sure it not having a proper SKU to customize it's bootscreen as causes that screen. Use TweakNT to make it see itself as a server SKU or something.
