How do I get rid of the shutdown screens in win XP?

I'm using XP to power an arcade machine. On startup, I have got rid of the win logo 'fuel gauge' thingy, and it goes straight to desktop for a few seconds, before starting mame in a new full screen window (No toolbar)

The desktop itself has no icons, start bar set to 'hide' and a nice mame logo, but you only see it for a couple of seconds anyway...

But when I shut down, I get a nice blue screen that says 'Windows is shutting down' and then another message before the screen goes black.

I'd really like to shut down and have the screen go black straight away. I know when its shutdown cause it says 'No Signal' (Which is fine...)

Whats the easiest way to achieve this? Thanks

TL/DR?
