I have used the resource hacker software as described above but although i can make changes to the start up bitmaps etc contained in ntoskrnl.exe in the winnt/system32 directory, I cannot successfully save the edited ntoskrnl.exe file. I have tried many ways around it ... moving the original file, renaming it ... whatever .... as soon as I do anything to the file, windows recreates a new "original" ntoskrnl.exe and I'm back to square one! Any ideas?
