Windows 3.0 build 14 fake bootscreen

[Cigaryno]

Windows 3.0 build 1.14, which is a rushed off build, has no boot screen. In a video of upgrading through versions of Windows, I seen a fake boot screen that reads:

Code: Select all

Microsoft Windows/386
Version 3.0
Debug Release 1.14

Do you know anything about this fake boot screen?

What else do you really need to know, other than that it's fake?

I also need to know how this fake boot screen was initially made. I think it was made sometime after the build was leaked.

I'm pretty sure to make a custom Windows 1.0x/2.xx boot screen, you need some hex editing to change some bits and pieces.

I recall hearing that someone here managed to do the same thing, albeit using Microsoft Word, so maybe you don't need to do the complex method.
