Thanks for the reply, checked my lilo.conf, and its in, also tried
adding splash=silent , but that made no difference
boot=/dev/hda
vga=normal
default="win4lin"
keytable=/boot/uk.klt
prompt
nowarn
timeout=100
message=/boot/message
menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw
image=/boot/win4lin
label="win4lin"
root=/dev/hda1
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="quiet noapic devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi
acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda5 splash=silent"
vga=788
read-only
