Change your POST Bitmap



Comments available as RSS 2.0

Ever thought it would look cool if you had a custom image displayed when you turn on your laptop instead of the Dell logo? I found a utility from Dell which seems to work on most models, and replaces the default logo with a BMP of your choice. I've bundled the utility with a few splash screens, all you need to do is either follow the instructions to create a bootable USB key or burn the included ISO image and type 'spl2 imagename' at the prompt.

DELL POST Bitmaps

A few splash screens are included with this release, but I'll probably add more later.

    I don't have one to test, but it seems to work on my Dell laptops. No problems with my XPS M1330.
