       Change the start button in Windows XP
       In this step-by-step guide, you’ll be
       able to change the text in your start
       button to whatever you’d like!
       Begin Disclaimer: I am not liable for any damage done to your
       computer
       system at all. This process is a registry
       hack, and if you mess up royally and
       do not back up your system properly,
       you could ruin your system. That said,
       this is incredibly simple to do considering I am only a
       teenager. Start
       by backing up your entire computer, if
       you haven’t done so already. (Just in
       case)
       Download the program to do this
       mod, you will have to download Resource Hacker, a freeware
       program
       that lets us manipulate the Windows
  HTML registry. go to http:// www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/ , and
       then download the europe
       version. /> Use Resource Hacker!
       Now you will open up Resource
       Hacker. Go to File>Open>explorer.
       Change the start text. Now that you
       are in explorer, on the left go into String Table>37, and then
       click on
       1003. Select “start”, or number 578,
       and change start to whatever you
       want. It can contain any number,
       letter, or other operation.
       IMPORTANT: You *MUST* KEEP THE QUOTATION MARKS AROUND
       WHATEVER YOU PUT IN! Otherwise it
       won’t work. After you are done that,
       click compile script, and then SAVE AS
       (not save) as explorer1.exe /> Time to
       get dirty Now this might get a lil confusing, so i’ll number the
       steps.
       1. Go into your start menu, and hit run
       2. enter regedit and then open.
       3. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
       SOFTWARE Microsoft Windows NT
       CurrentVersion Winlogon, and select winlogon
       4. Hold down ctrl+alt+delete, go into
       processes, select explorer.exe, and
       then end process. ( now your screen
       will go blank except for resource
       hacker, and your ctrl alt delete box) 5. Back to the registry….
       scroll down
       and then double click on shell. Change
       explorer.exe to explorer1.exe
       6. reboot with the ctrl+alt+delete box
       and you’re good to go!
