              Welcome to the Personality Xchange for Windows95/NT


This program is made for all you people out there who want to personalize your 
copy of Window95, or Windows NT 4.0.

The function of PeX is to change the "StartUp Windows" logo,  "Wait for 
shutdown" logo & "It is now safe to turn of your computer" logo, with any 
320x640x256 bitmap image that you like to see at start up or at shutdown.
(Don't blame me for the lousy 320x640 resolution, it is Microsoft Windows 
standard).
And the other feature of this program is to put information in the "My Computer 
/ Properties" Tab (equivalent to "Control Panel / System"). You can put anything 
you want into the first two lines of the "Computer:" section, (usually a 
manufacturer name and the model of the computer), and "Support Information" 
which will provide you an extra information about your system or firm, like the 
address, telephone numbers, email address, web page, etc.

An extra feature is to add your firm logo on the same screen tab. You can put 
any bitmap there, to create a great impression with the others or with the 
customers (if you are a firm or a salesman).



                               How does PeX work?


There are two (unavailable for editing, see "Register Help" for details) boxes 
where the user (or a firm) information is given. It is placed under the 
"Computer:" section in "My Computer / Properties" (or "Control Panel / System") 
Tab. 
Then, there are three boxes in which You can place paths to the bitmaps that you 
want to put as a replacements for the "StartUp", "Wait for Shutdown" & "It is 
now safe to turn off your computer" logos. Use the "Browse" button to find the 
files.

The "Produced and Manufactured by" logo, is a logo which is placed in a "My 
Computer / Properties" (or "Control Panel / System") Tab. Use any bitmap (not 
larger then 182x114) using the Browse button.
The last box is a path to any text file which you want to be shown in a special 
window when you press the "Support Information" button, under the "Computer:" 
section in "My Computer / Properties" (or "Control Panel / System") Tab. 
The two vertical sets of buttons are to provide you an extra of two options. 
With them you can set the paths not to point to a filename, but to an original 
Windows95 logos, or the second alternative, to set them to {no change} (default 
when starting PeX). If {no change} is set, then PeX doesn't change the specific 
feature and leaves it unchanged.

The "Clear All and Exit" button, clears everything that has been done with PeX, 
and sets everything as it was before the first start of PeX.
When all is configured as you want, press the "Submit These Settings" button.
