windows pulls that info from the drivers installed for your hardware, or from the hardware's firmware.
so, in short, without either the wrong drivers installed (which could potentially damage your hardware) you can't display the wrong hardware devices.
what you CAN do is install a virtual machine on your operating system, and emulate any hardware you wish.

No, unless you install an incorrect driver...but doing that would make your hardware run poorly.

There may be a way to trick it in registry. But I'm not sure where to find that or if it even works. That would be my only suggestion, if that doesn't work, then I don't think it's possible.

No, it reads what your hardware is,and what ever it is identified as,that is what will be displayed,Haven't been telling people you have something you haven't got ,have you?

but i need to know the version of windows.
ok go to windows folder the system32 inthere we have two files with the names "oeminfo" and "oem logo"
edit them and then save them on system 32 with its original name and enjoy
and if you want to chek it out right click on mycomputer and then go to properties and see what youv done
