    Hi all! I'm not sure if this is the best place to ask, but here goes. I was wondering if it was possible to change the BIOS Font Color (EG: RAM Count) away from white, to an alternate color (Say Red?) in Windows XP? I have searched Google, yet found nothing. Thank you for your time! - Reelix

      Nope. Windows XP has nothing to do with it since Windows isn't running when the BIOS screens are visible. You'd have to know exactly where the color number is stored in the BIOS Flash code, change the value, then reflash your system BIOS with the updated code. You, more than likely, will not find any information on the web on how to do this since noone to very, very few people ever does attempts it, let alone succeeds at it.
