HackBGRT151: The Ultimate Guide to Changing Your Windows Boot Logo

Feature: Replace or remove the vendor BIOS boot logo (BGRT) with a custom image

BGRT stands for Boot Graphics Resource Table – a UEFI feature that displays a logo (usually the motherboard or PC vendor’s logo) very early in boot. hackbgrt151

hackbgrt151 allows you to:

  1. Override that vendor logo with your own image.
  2. Disable the logo entirely for a clean, text-only or custom framebuffer boot.
  3. Fix issues where the logo persists incorrectly or causes graphical glitches when the kernel takes over the display.

The Hack

  1. Locate BGRT – Scan /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/BGRT or memory for the table.
  2. Overwrite Image Address – Replace the pointer with a custom bitmap loaded into reserved memory (via kernel module or UEFI runtime services).
  3. Patch GRUB – Ensure GRUB doesn’t clear or overwrite the framebuffer before the kernel boots. This is where version 151’s patches matter: they modify GRUB’s video_fb and efi modules to preserve the custom BGRT across boot stages.

Final Verdict: Should You Use HackBGRT151?

Yes, if:

  • You value aesthetic control over your PC.
  • You are comfortable following technical guides and creating a simple BMP file.
  • You have a backup plan (Windows recovery USB).

No, if:

  • You rely on your PC for mission-critical work and cannot risk any downtime.
  • You are uncomfortable navigating UEFI/BIOS settings.
  • You have a BitLocker-encrypted drive without the recovery key (changing boot files can trigger BitLocker recovery).
