You're using Windows 95, I take it?  That splash screen is controlled
by an option in MSDOS.SYS (not IO.SYS.)  IIRC, the options is
BOOTLOGO=

Since MSDOS.SYS is a plain old text file, you can use any plain old
text editor to change it.  Use ATTRIB -S -H -R C:\MSDOS.SYS first to
make the file changable.
