It all depends on what OS (Operating System) you are running. on a normal windows install without any form of Mac,Linux or Unix OS`s installed it would just go to the bios screen and then right after that the splash screen would show up and then go right too the windows logon screen. Right now on my box I have Windows Vista and Ubuntu and on a typical boot sequence on my box First I have the (basic input/output system (BIOS) screen then i have a GRUB (GRand Unified Bootloader) screen pop up after that and it gives me a selection too choose from of all the OS`s I have installed on my box then I either let if load Ubuntu by default or choose windows. after I select one and press enter it gos to the splash screen which is basically a moving bar then after the splash screen you have the logon screen and after that you most likely know the rest.
