The OEM Info Tool application wsa designed to be a small program that allows you to add or modify the OEM information you see when you open the System Properties window.
When you buy branded personal computers which come pre-installed with Windows, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) like Dell, Sony, etc. puts in the OEM information, thereby branding the Windows PC.
This branding includes logo of the OEM, the support web site along with other information. But when you install Windows yourself from the Windows DVD, this OEM information is never set. This information is absent from the System Properties window. You can use the OEM Info Tool to add or modify this OEM information. You can put in any information you like, setting your personal picture as logo.
OEM Info Tool must be run with administrator credentials because it needs to make changes in the registry as well as copy the logo file to the Windows folder.
Here are some key features of "OEM Info Tool":
Backup and Restore:
· If you have already set OEM information yourself or your OEM has set the information, then OEM Info Tool will show this information on the startup. In this case, it as highly advised that you backup your original information before making any changes. To make a backup of your current settings, select File · Backup. If later you want to restore the settings from the backup, you can choose File · Restore.
Adding and Modifying:
· If you have not set any OEM information previously, then OEM Info Tool will show up with all fields blank. You can add any information you want. You must fill all the fields and choose a logo file before you can save the changes. To choose a logo file, click on the button labeled Browse Logo. Alternatively, you can select from menu File · Browse Logo. Then select a Windows BMP file. The logo file should be 120x120 pixels in size and should be of type BMP only. I have provided some logo files on this page for you to start with. Right-click on any of the logo and select Save As to save that logo file on your hard disk.
