re: Question about 'Replace the Ugly Startup and Shutdown Screens' Sunday, December 23, 2001 at 10:53 am Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Preston (1 messages posted) Don't mess with bin.ini. The solution is to boot into safe mode; login. Then, use Resource Hacker to open up the ntoskrnl.exe file in the system32 directory. Safe mode disables Windows File Protection, so you can write to the protected file ntoskrnl.exe.
