The only things left to take care of now is hide the mouse pointer during startup and to install a PCI video card. Edit: I created a new video thats a little easier to understand http://www.envy-online.net/video/startup_352x240.mpg --- End quote --- |

Yeah, found back my old PCI video card and installed it. Perfect ! Although even the WinXP bootscreen (the altered one) is not showing now, but I prefer this because now I do not get any BIOS screens. As with any brilliant idea: it's simple and works great ! |

It's my understanding that it doesn't even have to actually WORK, it just has to occupy the slot so that your PC continues to try to output to it while it's booting. I could be wrong on this though, as I don't have a non-working PCI video card to test this out. |
