Default ... :roll:

I could install Tweak UI and get rid of it though... but I don't really care.

I almost never see my bootscreen so I did not see a point in getting one.

Is there a bootscreen that shows you the steps of windows loading?

I did something like that on my old computer. but it was with the BOIS and it was turning off a clean boot (where you dont see everything turning on it just a gateway picture with a bar at the bottom. I think I did that same thing to my current computer but I dont remeber since it was so long ago)

My boot screen shows a silver apple on a white background, unless I turn on Verbose mode, which allows me to see what is actually going on during startup.

My login screen is a white box with a Name field and a Password field.
