i may not be held responsible if you mess up your axim
**************************************************
okay we all saw that thread where you could change your reset screen.... well i have come up with a way that is much simpuler....
************************************************** *
1. your going to need some software like toatl commander
2. look for an image in the \WINDOWS\ folder called BOOT.BMP
3. rename this to BOOT_.BMP
4. put the image that you want to replace it with in the windows folder.
5. the image MUST be a bmp image
6. rename the selcted image to BOOT.bmp
************************************************** ***
all done ....i changed mine to cute little Oolong....

Let me guess...you're going to keep bumping until someone responds. I'll bite ... Cool.

Does it have to be sized to a certain resolution or does the Axim automatically down/up size it to fit?

not sure Oolong was small enough...you can be the first to try my guess is that it resizes it.......

Mine will not allow it, it says it is read only, even if I uncheck that

Resco File Explorer...

Made a copy (just to see that I could access it). Yet, I was also able to access the file with Arcsoft Photobase. That software found the file to be 77k, 256 colors, 240x320, created/modified 02/20/2003 at 20:45, and of course a BMP.

So, in general, if you can't find the file, it IS there, but you have to find a file manager that can see the file first... then you can try to mess with the file...

I don't think the modification would cause permanent damange... but it might force a hard reset, so be careful!

okay you need a hex editer...to change the name i did it but i guess not every ones pda will allow that..........
