Encrypted_God Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 Hey...., Was wondering why the word, "Professional" (and the scrolling light below it) does not show up during boot? I just installed SP2 on a clean install. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CmpFreak88 Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 Because they felt like taking it away... I didn't like that either. It's not just you, don't worry about it. I just changed mine back when I had it by downloading the old one and loading it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdylyzsouless Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 I still have the scrolling progress bar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 Why would anyone care if it still says "professional"? It's not like it replaces your OS with something else, it's still XP Pro. M$ probably just wanted to break all the splash screens (Home, Professional, Tablet PC, etc) down into one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Encrypted_God Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 Neo: I never said I cared. And I don't. As long as it doesn't affect my OC {& Y would it?) I was just wondering why is all. And your reasoning why they do that is probably the correct one RE: The Break down into 1. Who knows? But thanx for the answer. cmpfreak: yes I thought I did screw something up ?

sdy284 Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 if its really bothering you, i'm sure you could use something like style xp and change it to the original boot screen....i'm sure people have done that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverfox Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 ^ along with changing about a million networking screens and their layouts, so that idiots' guides can no longer use screen shots to show how to set up a network/wireless lan. Well done M$!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
