5.4 Personalized Boot Logo
The CUSL2-C Black Pearl comes with an exciting feature to help you
customize your new personal computer: LOGO.EXE. This DOS software
helps you create a selection of colorful, personalized boot screens. ASUS
supplies you with the executable software, LOGO.EXE, along with a sample
image library of boot screens in bitmap (BMP) format. (See the Readme file
in the Logo folder on the Support CD for a list of file names.)
NOTE: It is advisable, but not necessary, to back up your system BIOS to a
bootable floppy disk before using LOGO to modify your boot screen; (See
section 4.1 in BIOS Setup.) Also, ensure that the Full Screen Logo is En-
abled in the BIOS Boot Menu; (See section 4.6 in BIOS Setup.)
1. To set up a new Personalized Boot Logo, browse the Support CD and
copy these three components to the windows directory: LOGO.EXE;
AFLASH.EXE; one or more BMP files in 640 x 480 pixel, 16-color
format.
2. Then go to the Shut Down Menu and select: “Restart in DOS Mode.”
From DOS, run AFLASH:
3. In AFLASH, select [1] and save the existing system BIOS file with a
new name, for example: CSCB1016.AWD. Exit AFLASH to DOS.
4. To set up a new boot screen, run LOGO from DOS. Both the BIOS file
name and the BMP file name must follow in the command line:
5. Press <enter> to save the image with the BIOS file.
6. Run AFLASH again. Select [2] and flash the updated BIOS file, in this
case, CSCB1016.AWD, to the ROM.
7. Reboot your computer: press <ctl><alt><del>. The new boot screen that
you selected will now appear.
8. If you wish to select a new BMP file, rerun the process beginning at Step
# 4 above. BMP files must be in the same directory as LOGO.EXE.
Of course, you may wish to create an original boot image. Use your
favorite photo editor to save an image as a 640 x 480 pixel, 16-color BMP
file. Choose a file name for the image with eight digits and characters
recognizable in the DOS environment.
