Without a few questions answered, there's no telling when or why the error occurs. 
If you are trying to change the logo's, this automated approach may help?

This is easy, open your dos prompt under the programs menu, applications, its a black icon ond has the follwing symbol C:\........ go into the directory where the file is and look up the file then once located under DOS prompt do the following rename example.txt example.sys ENTER If you don't understand dos commands, COPY the file and email it to me andy.theloft@ntlworld.com and i will send it back in the name you want, but, before you put the file back, keep a copy of your old file safe \o waves tara
