Never Mind! I found the info at www.belchfire.net Don't say I didn't warn you about SP1 for XP! (I hope I didn't break a rule posting the URL?)

Forgot to mention, the machine does not have a custom login screen since it's on a NetWare Network - anyone know what the status is for a custom logon screen as well? I don't want to try the upgrade on my home machine until I hear otherwise.

Windows XP Service Pack 1 breaks the custom boot screens! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I installed XP Service Pack for XP Pro one on a workstation with "Rocky Shore" boot screen and the computer refused to boot with the "custom boot screen" active! I had to reboot into safe mode using the CD - the hard drive safe mode only crashed the computer as well! I deleted the boot.ini file and rebooted and got back in. I recreated the boot.ini file WITHOUT the custom boot screen and all is well! Freaking M$ pack ruins the pretty boot!!! Linux is STILL king!!!
