Hi there...

First sorry for the bump...

 

I have found the first half color pallete for txtsetup phase...

But only the the first half... after this screen (see picture below).. the color is reverted to normal ones... I couldn't find the responsible file for the rest setup phase...

here is the pcocess...

 

1. obtain setupldr.bin from xp CD.

2. split the file using any hex editor by searching the 'MZ' string... we'll use the first occurence...

3. save from 'MZ' string until the end of file as an exe file.

4. and also the loader (from the first up to just before 'MZ' string)

5. open the exe file search for

00 04 02 06 01 05 03 07

yup they are the color codes...

you can see the available color codes in cmd by typing: color /?

 

6. replace with any desired value...

7. update the checksum.... (important or else it won't boot)

8. join the exe back with the loader..

9. drop in xp CD...
