An update - I've checked the boot.ini file (reads as below - no
/kernel line in it), searched for logo.sys (it doesn't exist), added
Logo=0 to the msdos.sys file and am still seeing this picture.
Some other clues: I no longer see it when I login as administrator,
but when I login as a standard user, there it is. But, if I switch from
standard user to administrator, I see it again. Other ideas?
