System Information
« on: October 02, 2003, 11:28:24 PM »
So you know how when you buy a factory PC, whether it be Dell, Gateway, Compaq, etc. and you right click on 'My Computer' to see what some of the system specs are? It will show you they're logo and what looks to be some text from a file that contains the system specs? I was just curious how to do that in system that I put together. Any ideas would be worth trying. Thanks! http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ph34r.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':ph34r:\' />

You need two files in your system32 dir:

oemlogo.bmp - The image you want, needs to be about 180 x 90 and oeminfo.ini

This is my ini file lifted straight out of my system32 dir:

;   Sample OEMINFO.INI
;   1/18/2000 BB

;   This file contains manufacturer, model and support information
;   that is displayed in the system control panel.


;   Manufacturer and Model are displayed on System.General page
;   Manufacturer is a required field

[general]
;Be carefully not to leave any trailing spaces after your manufacturer name!
Manufacturer=Fujitsu Siemens Computers
Model=Lifebook C1020
SupportURL=http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/service


;   The [OEMSpecific] keys are not displayed,
;   but may be used by the OEM for system-specific information.

[OEMSpecific]
;SubModel=456A0123                              ;optional additional oem info
;SerialNo=12345678                              ;etc.
;OEM1=Your private info                         ;etc.
;OEM2=More private info                         ;etc.

;   Support Info displayed when "Support Information..." button selected

[Support Information]
Line1="If you should have technical questions or problems in"
Line2="conjunction with your new personal computer, please get"
Line3="in touch with us. Please contact one of our IT Service"
Line4="Shops or your local sales office or our hotline:"  
Line5=""
Line6="The telephone numbers and addresses can be found in the"
Line7="enclosed manuals:"
Line8="  *  Safety, Guarantee and Ergonomics"

Hope the above is useful!
