OEM its the abbreviation for Original Equipment Manufacturer . OEM Information is used by the manufacturers of your laptop or pc to display their company logo,system model etc in your system properties like in the above image ( though it is a modified one ).so we are gonna tweak this OEM Info to show our desired values and logo,like in the above image.
- First open windows registry editor.you can do it by typing "regedit" in run or even search for it in windows search
- Just create a backup of your registry,in case you screw it up,
- goto file menu,select export and then give it a name,select back up all and hit save
- Now navigate to the following reg key value
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OEMInformation
- There add new string value by right clicking on the empty pane
- You need to create the following string values
Manufacturer
Model
SupportPhone
SupportHours
Website
Logo
- Incase they are already present,you can just modify them.
- Now right click on the string and modify its value
- Repeat this for all the strings,i think the string names are self explanatory,
- and now for the logo,you would need a 120X120 bmp image,you can convert your selected image into bmp and specified resolution using this Online converter
- Now copy your generated bmp image to folowing location
C:\Windows\System32\oobe\
- Now edit the logo value to the path specified and then you image name with a .bmp extension
- Now restart your computer and there you go!your own customized OEM Info.
