is there any way that you can add your name and a logo(like some p.c manufacturers do) in the system properties general tab window
i just wondered as i have started to build a few systems a month for private sales and if i could design a logo and put it on the windows i install it would look a bit more proffesinal
i know this is a long shot but there must be a way as like i said..companys like infinity,mesh and evesham all include their logos on the system properties window
any ideas?

there is, it's quite easy you just edit two files on the system - namely 'oemlogo.bmp' (the picture in system properties) and 'oeminfo.inf' (the text in system properties).
instructions for changing these can be found here:

examples of a custom 'oemlogo.bmp' and 'oeminfo.inf' are here:

after removing the dell branding from my laptop using this method:

after you've created your 2 custom files for the first time, those files can then just be copied into the folders of the computers you build from a pen-drive or whatever - literally a 2 second job.

Do what I do.
Most new motherboards support the ability to load a bitmap image into the bios which displayes during post, this is a great place to put your logo and website as people will see it every time they turn their pc on.
Also most people are unaware how to remove it so its stuck there for years :)
