在XP下改这些东西的话,可以去这个站看看:http://www.themexp.org
他们管启动的画面叫boot screen,下载下来的确是W说的ntoskrnl.exe,还有个ntoskrnlps.exe,XP下可以改的东西有很多,包括用户登陆的画面(login),和窗口的风格(Visual Style)下面是几张相关的图片:
logins:

boot screens:

Visual Styles:

(还有很多,去那个站找找看吧)
至于2000的,我就不是很清楚了,我最近才用2000,以前一直没怎么注意过2000的东西
改之前自己做好一切准备,想好出了问题的解决方法,后果自负(反正我不负责^_^)
还有,没有人可以记住所有的东西,所以可能会给你些记忆中的东西做为参考,至于怎么从里面获得有用的东西,那就要靠自己了,如果想要学到东西的话,不自己试是不可以的。
If you want to modify these things under XP, you can take a look at this site: http://www.themexp.org. They call the boot screen "boot screen". The downloaded one is indeed the ntoskrnl.exe as W said, and there is also an ntoskrnlps.exe. There are many things that can be modified under XP, including the user login screen (login) and the window style (Visual Style). Here are a few related pictures:

(There are many more, go to that site to find them)
As for 2000, I'm not very clear. I've only been using 2000 recently and haven't paid much attention to things related to 2000 before.
Make all preparations yourself before modifying, think about the solutions in case of problems, and you are responsible for the consequences (anyway, I'm not responsible ^_^)
Also, no one can remember everything, so maybe some things from memory will be given as reference. As for how to get useful things from them, it depends on yourself. If you want to learn something, you can't do it without trying yourself.
