re: speeding strat menu at boot up Monday, August 20, 2001 at 3:09 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Paul D (827 messages posted) No, Bill built in a delay to annoy people like you! Seriously, getting rid of the splash screen achieves nothing, there's heaps of stuff going on behind the scenes at bootup. Next time you boot, hold the control key and select Logged Boot from the menu you'll get. When it's finished open bootlog.txt with notepad, and you'll get an idea of how your 28 seconds is being used. Paul D On Monday, August 20, 2001 at 12:45 pm, Reese wrote: >Hi.
