Default Start up & Shut Down music length


Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to increase the time that the
start up and shut down music will play. I want to use a different .wav
for the startup and shut down music, but it stops playing after about
10 seconds or so...I really need it to play for around 50 seconds. Any
help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

P.S. I already tried using the Scheduled Tasks utility to play the
music when I start my computer but it won't work because I don't have a
password assigned to my account in XP and I don't want to assign one.

Default RE: Start up & Shut Down music length

The answer is - No. The length of the music depends on your BIOS
to load and that is around 10 seconds. You can download the music
separately and play it on WMP. The name of the song is - Title.wma
At: C\Windows\System32\oobe\images\title.wma
