AshUK Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 When I view my system information in Help and Support Center there are some points where it says "To Be Filled By O.E.M." Does anyone know how to change this so I can enter my made up OEM name, lol. I've tried the OEM thing in X-Setup and i've searched regedit and found nothing. Any help?

n-ctrl Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 This is done by 2 little files in the system32 folder, for older windows versions these are located in the system folder: 1. OEMINFO.INI Copy/paste this text in a new notepad textfile called oeminfo.ini : [support Information] Line1=Support information is keyed here Line2=Additional support information is keyed here. [general] Manufacturer=Name of Manufacturer is entered on this line Model=Model of the PC is entered here [OEMSpecific] SubModel=Name of the sub-model is entered on this line SerialNo=The serial number of your system is entered on this line OEM1=OEM information is entered on this line OEM2=Additional OEM information is entered on this line Not all lines are required though. 2. a graphic image called OEMLOGO.BMP. This graphic should be placed alongside the OEMINFO.INI file in the C:\Windows\System32 folder and will appear below the Microsoft logo on the General Panel of Control Panel | System. The graphic will not be displayed unless OEMINFO.INI also exists. Here is the specification for the graphic image: Filename : C:\Windows\System32\OEMLOGO.BMP Format : Windows Bitmap (BMP) Uncompressed Width : 180 Pixels* Height : 114 Pixels* DPI : 72 or 96dpi Type : 24-Bit RGB Colour some threads on Neowin on this topic : https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=...ST&f=33&t=53681 https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=...6005&hl=oeminfo Here's mine : Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/79809-how-to-change-to-be-filled-by-oem/#findComment-871161 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshUK Posted May 17, 2003 Author Share Posted May 17, 2003 Thats what X-Setup does, but this problem isnt anything to do with OEMINFO.INI Anyone else?

memoryx Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 I think those areas in Help and Support are are built into the OEM versions of Windows XP, someone correct me if I am wrong; just my guess.
