Boot into safe mode and run Bootskin > then choose the default bootscreen > reboot into normal mode and uninstall bootskin.

I have posted this before, but I think it is worth another shot:

"I believe bootskin is just on of those programs that does not work with all computers (note that it is unsupported freeware for exactly this reason).

The reason for this is that there is no such thing as a standardised BIOS. Manufacturers of computer systems often "tweak" and "adjust" the BIOS to their needs.

My own personal rule of thumb whether to install bootskin on a system would be:

1) Laptops and Notebooks > Their BIOS is often very specialised and I came across quite a few people who ran into problems after installing Bootskin on their portables. No

2)Systems out of the Box (prebuilt systems) > it depends, like I said before some manufacturer tweak their BIOS quite a bit. Maybe, if it doesn't work uninstall it.

3)Custom build systems > The BIOS of a motherboard you buy off the shelf can't be as specialised, since the manufacturer doesn't know what exactly you put on it. Yes

Note that there are exceptions to these rules. I know of Laptops that work well with bootskin, and I am sure that someone will come across a custom built system that can't handle this little program."

There are alternative versions of Bootskin on the Stardock website, one of them might work with your system. https://www.stardock.com/products/bootskin/
