With xp the only way that I'm aware of you will have to have two boot options 1 being the normal winxp the other being the edited version (I guess it has something to do with windows fixing itself everytime you shut down) and the other being the edited winxp.

Google "log in boot randomizer" er "loginbootrandomizer" or something to that effect.  I'm pretty sure that you will come up with more detailed instructions. ;)

I was considering this, but decided against it due to the fact that when I push the button on my computer I want it to start up as fast as posible and not have to go through any type of options.
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

There's also BootXP which will allow you to take any pic of your choice and with a little resizing make it your windows start up screen.

I used this program to change my windows xp bootscreen.  It is free.  You can use it to modify the bootscreen however you'd like.
