What OS for making a jukebox
« on: December 28, 2005, 01:26:07 pm »
Hi everyone,

This is my first post here, so yeah I'm a newbie.  I have a question.

I am in the process of building a full size jukebox, which will be run by a PC inside the cabinet.  So far, all good. 

My problem is, when I turn the jukebox on and off, I don't want it to look like PC (eg. windows is shutting down).  IS there an operating system or something out there, that when I flick the switch to turn on the jukebox, all you will see on the screen is the jukebox.

If anyone can help me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

John
