*********************************************************

In Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP, the BSOD doesn't have to be blue.
Here's how to change it:

Run SYSEDIT and select the system.ini file.
Scroll down to the [386enh] section.

If you see the following lines in that section:

    MessageBackColor=1
    MessageTextColor=8

change the numbers to specify the desired color, according
to the table below:

0=black
1=blue
2=green
3=cyan
4=red
5=magenta
6=yellow/brown
7=white
8=gray
9=bright blue
A=bright green
B=bright cyan
C=bright red
D=bright magenta
E=bright yellow
F=bright white

If the lines don't appear in that section, type them in
to specify the desired color changes.

Exit system.ini and SAVE your changes.
