Like many other motherboard makers, ASUS continues to advertise their boards long after the sale -- with the splash screen that displays when you boot your computer. Most ASUS motherboards provide an option in the system BIOS, though, that allows you to disable the splash screen during startup. Although not included in the system BIOS, ASUS also offers a free utility that allows you to customize the boot splash screen by using any supported image from your hard drive. With the MyLogo or MyLogo2 utility, you can replace the boot splash images quickly.
