Hello,

I have some experience with CustomSettings.ini but not with model or manufacture sections.

Maybe you should collect the Model and Manufacture informations with LiteTouch scripts (ZTIGather).

Run a LiteTouch Wizard, and check the VARIABLES.DAT in one of the C:\MININT\ subfolders.

Thanks Largo,

check the Variables.dat, it gifs the same data as i get from smbios2.exe, so there has to be somthing wrong in the Customsettings.ini
