Pizza one is the phone number of the delivery. that's where i get my lunch sometimes.
The errors are errors we had to correct on the system we make. Ugly one left with no ticketing system to half of Argentina, and uglier one... better not to ask. Corrected months ago, I forgot to delete the files.
Seeing that nice pirate screen made me make a new XP boot screen:
The Extremely Pirated version of XP
Going to edit the kernel tonight to add it as a boot screen. I don't thrust those XPstyle programs, and i don't like the XP boot screen.
Don't use that one if you plan to make it. You need it to be a 4-bit BMP file, not a png. And if you fail to do so, PC wont boot anymore.

how would you do that?

Its a bit of work. You need to do some kernel editing in order to accommodate the image.
1st you create your image. be sure to make it at 640x480.
Once done, you downgrade it to 16 colors.
After that, write down the hex color codes of the color palette.
then, make that palette fully black, and save the bitmap (640x480 16 colors, not 16 bit)
Then, you need to open the kernel with reshack, and replace the 1st bitmap with your 16 colors image.
After that, we need to change the color palette the kernel uses to display the image. we open the kernel with an hex editor, and search for this string:
Code:
00 00 00 00 15 1A 20 00 46 46 46 00 D2 3E 2D 00 01 65 53 00 05 35 B2 00 7E 7E 7E 00 00 92 89 00 FC 7F 5E 00 20 6B F7 00 FF A6 8D 00 04 DC 8E 00 1B BC F3 00 BC BC BC 00 FC FC FC 00 FF FF FFOnce done, save and create a new boot option on your boot.ini file. One with the new kernel path. /kernel=mynewknl.exe for example.
(we wont overwrite the original ntoskrnl.exe file, but copy it and work on that one. Remember to make the filename in 8.3 format).
If done correctly, the OS selection screen will pop up. Choose the new kernel and boot. Computer should boot if all is ok, or crash and die misserably if you messed up something. IF thats the case, you boot with your original kernel and try again. IF you dont do that dual boot trick, and something goes ugly, you're fried and with no computer. be ready to reinstall XP from scratch.
I made a try here at office with the XP pirated edition screenie, and it worked. I will make my own once i reach home.

Beware! Don't try this at home unless you know what you are doing. You could screw you computer badly if you make a mistake...
