Change OEM branding of System Properties
It is possible to change some of the text shown on System Properties, which is shown when right clicking My Computer and selecting Properties.
- Go to the folder %Windir%\System
- Create a new text file and name it OemInfo.ini
- Edit the new text file and insert the following lines (Modify them as you wish)
[general]
Manufacturer=Dell
Model=XPS200s[Support Information]
Line1=These lines will be
Line2=shown when pressing
Line3=the button “Support Information”
Line4=
Line5=Cheers
It is also possible to place a nice logo on the System Properties:
- Find a good BMP picture in 256 color and make sure it has the right size:
- Win9x: 96 x 96 pixels (Small fonts), 120 x 120 pixels (Large fonts)
- Win2k/XP: 172 x 172 pixels
- Copy the picture to %Windir%\System and rename it to OemInfo.bmp
Note it is also possible to place the two files in %Windir%\System32 if on a WinNT+ installation.
