Yes you can change the startup screen for XP and W2K.
I’m not sure about the shutdown screens though.

WARNING: CHANGING THE STARTUP SCREEN INVOLVES EDITING SYSTEM FILES!
PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

Here are a few links with articles on how to change the startup graphic for W2K and XP.

As always, remove any spaces from the pasted links.

In the current edition (the one that is now on the stands, summer 2003) of 2600 magazine there is a good article on how to do this and much more, to the look of Windows.
