Thanks for the floppy suggestion - I had heard of that, but
forgotten. Now I have created a couple of files (bmp's) that have
that shade of blue, and the correct format, I think. They are at
1024 x 768 and 800 x 600 resolution, and say, basically,
<blue on white, centered>
Error hard drive failure:
<white on blue>
You have the following options:
1. Reinstall using a REAL operating system,
2. Call technical support at 1-800-NO-CHANCE,
3. Pray.
<all one line>
Press ENTER to delete your entire partition, ESC to attempt to
recover (good luck!).
I used the system font for this, but I have no idea how the 800x600
will look. The hires looks good tho. (of course, I am running at
that res).
Regular win95 paint will do it, with the default dark Blue, from
it's palette.
