Hello. I am new with using windows 2K and I was playing with some settings the other day, and I changed something that makes the Win2K logo really small after the pc runs POST. The display of the desktop and everything else is fine after I log in, but its just the Win2K logo that is small on bootup. It must have been something really simple, but I figured I'd ask the pros before I go playing around with the settings. Thanks in advance.
This probably doesn't answer your question but have some fun with this .
Had a try with that changing startup logo stuff but apparently it doesnt work if you have SP3 installed .... any ideas? (designed a really good logo too :rolleyes: )
It does work, I'm using it now on an SP3 pc.

Found a little ap here that manages it all for you:

Are you using a laptop?
Set in to laptop display instead of default monitor.
Yes, I am using a laptop. Where would I find those settings? I know of a similar setting through the control panel->display->settings->advanced, but it is already selected as laptop monitor.
Here's the deal. Your laptop screen has a native resolution of at least 1024x768. Your laptop can "Zoom" video with lower resolutions to fill the whole screen, although it usually is slightly fuzzy. Check your bios for "Zoomed" video and make sure its enabled. (Your manufacturer may call it something else.) Then your lap will be able to enlarge the video to fill the screen.
Flat panel displays don't display multiple resolutions. They have a single 'native' resolution. ie: 1024x768 1600x1200 etc. Any other resolution displayed is interpolated by the display driver and fed to the screen at it's native resolution.
Your logo seemed small because the logo itself was much smaller than the native resolution of your screen, so it was displayed at its 'true size' in the center of the screen.
