    Why did the Windows XP bootscreen change?


    In Windows XP sp1 and earlier the bootscreen says Windows XP Professional or Windows XP Home edition but in SP2 or later it just says Windows XP. no home edition branding or professional branding. Why?

    Windows 7 has Vista bootscreen

    I just got through installing Windows 7 on my Eee PC 1000H, but ran unto a minor problem. When I boot, I get the ugly Vista bootscreen instead of the nice Windows 7 bootscreen. I tried the BCD locale fix that is out there, but it didn't fix it.

    Could it be that the resolution on the Eee PC is too low for the bootscreen? Does anyone know if the bootscreen requires a certain resolution?

    Why did the Windows XP bootscreen change?

    Windows 7 has Vista bootscreen

    Clean install, deleted the Vista partition completely and recreated it, then formatted the drive fresh before installing Win7.

    I'm leaning towards this being the reason, the Eee PC's screen is only 1024x600, so if the bootscreen wants 1280x1024, it can't do it.*Mad Why did the Windows XP bootscreen change? :mad:

    It isn't really too big of an issue, I hardly see the boot screen, I just hate the Vista bootscreen so much. Oh well, it is a small price to pay for a better running computer(and it runs so much better with Win7 over Vista and XP).
