minus-square Nyfure ( @Nyfure@kbin.social ) linkfedilink2•10 months agoMost fastboot options dont show the logo until windows bootloader comes along. Though i am not sure how or why the logo is displayed when windows loads? Is that the same image? Loaded and displayed again or just didnt clear the display?
