I want to customize my computer so that when i log on before anything appears i see a full screen short movie and then it closes and i see my desktop. I tried putting the mpeg into the Startup folder but it simply loaded my desktop then opened it in Windows media player in full mode. I doubt windows has the capibilities of doing this but maybe there is software i can download or anything that could do this. If anyone has superior knowledge on this or has any idea that might help me can you e-mail me? Thank yo
