When I want to turn off my pc, the following sentence can be read on my monitor: "You can turn off your pc now" or something in that way (I'm Austrian and I thought that this would be the best translation) How can I change the words??

The words you're seeing is actually a .bmp file. You must have a certain sized bitmap file (320 x 400 x 256 colors) in order to replace it. The file c:\windows\logos.sys is the actual file that displays the words. Just make a 320x400x256 .bmp and rename it "logos.sys" and stick it in your Windows folder.

Using a graphics editor, make an image of 640 x 480 pixels at true color. Add any text and other stuff you desire. When you are satisfied, resize the image to 320 x 400 (yes, that's 320 x 400). It will appear vertically stretched... this is normal. Lastly, reduce the color depth to 256 colors and save the file in UNCOMPRESSED BMP format with the name LOGOS.SYS If you do it right, the file will be exactly 129,078 bytes in size. Good luck!
