How to get rid of splash screen
For some of us, Windows is not the main OS and as such run it is run on slow computers. Is there a way to get rid of the splash screen? It blocks the screen for 20 seconds. -- Regards, Charles.

It blocks the screen for 20 seconds. 1) Open the properties of the shortcut (desktop icon or start menu entry, etc.) you use to call TB. 2) Add /nologo behind the path to thebat.exe in the 'Target' field. (That field might then look likte this: C:\Program Files\The Bat!\thebat.exe /nologo) 3) From now onwards, when you use this short cut, the slash screen will not annoy you any more. -- Best regards, Cyrille mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [ TB! 2.11.02, Windows ME 4.90 Build 3000, Pentium 233Mhz with 95MB ] Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
