These are replacement start-up and shut-down screens for Windows 95 based on various anime series. I may add to these if I can spare the web space. Each set consists of a start-up screen displayed whilst Windows is loading, generally with colour-cycling text, a "please wait" screen displayed whilst Windows is shutting down, and a "shut-down complete" screen displayed when it is safe to turn off the computer.
Download the Zip file containing the set of start-up/shut-down screens of your choice.
Back up your original Windows logo screen files if you haven't done so already: C:\LOGO.SYS (if it exists. Windows 95 uses an internal default if it doesn't exist, but you get one with the Windows 95 Plus Pack), C:\WINDOWS\LOGOW.SYS and C:\WINDOWS\LOGOS.SYS (change 'C:\WINDOWS' to your Windows directory - it might be 'C:\WIN95').
Unzip th Zip file into a new directory.
For the static shut-down screens, copy LOGOW.SYS ("please wait") and LOGOS.SYS ("turn off") into your Windows directory (perhaps 'C:\WINDOWS' or 'C:\WIN95').
Shut-down your computer to test the shut-down screens, then reboot to test the start-up screen.
