STOP AND READ THE WHOLE THING BEFORE PROCEDING.
the problem that you have is that you replaced your io.sys. if you look into
the doc for the theme when you get your computer running, it should say
replace the LOGO.SYS from the c: not the IO.sys  The io.sys is one of the 3
main files that your computer needs to start up.  to fix follow the
instructions below....

1. Get a bootable 3 1/2 inch diskette. (or whatever size disk your computer
supports.)
        a. if you dont have one, take an empty disk to any computer with
windows 95 that is running put disk in and get to a command prompt, type
"sys a:" without the quotes. this will transfer the 3 system files to the
diskette.

2. put disk in broke computer and turn on computer

3. when you get an a: prompt, type "sys c:" without the quotes. this will
transfer the 3 system files from the diskette back to your hard drive,
replacing the io.sys that you overwrote with a bitmap.

4. take disk out and reboot computer, FIXED :)

and remember thats the logo.sys you can replace for the startup picture, not
the io.sys
