When is the software loading, how many softwares are loading, what softwares are loading? Please give us more information. But I'm thinking you are looking for ProgressOn(), ProgressSet(), ProgressOff() and basic GUI creation functions.

well this is what i have tried so far

; location of a picture in the windows folder.

$destination = @Systemdir & "\oobe\images\mslogo.jpg"

; splash the image on the screen.

SplashImageOn(" WIP IT (Data Deletion Program) ", $destination,250,50)

Sleep(5000); wait for the image to display 5 seconds.

SplashOff()

; turn the splash off.

$file = FileOpen("test.au3", 0)

; Check if file opened for reading OK

If $file = -1 Then

MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.")

Exit

EndIf

but it don't seem to load my file test.au3 relay i wont it all in one so the splash screen loads displays info and pic then the rest of the gui loads. any thoughts???
