i slipstreamed sp2 to an oem version of windows xp with sp1a or sp1 (not sure which) and installed it on a clean hard drive... now everytime i open system information, details like manufacturer/model shows as "To Be Filled By O.E.M."

anyone know where to change it in the installation cd?

i must've missed it somehow or sp2 overwrote some file/files

thanks,

you can change what it says by editing OEMINFO.INI in your windows\system32 folder. also you can add an image to the bottom left area by naming it OEMLOGO.BMP, but i forgot the size limit. hope this helps.

i do have oeminfo.ini in the system32 folder but now i'm thinking maybe i didn't delete oeminfo.in_ in the i386 folder..

also, from wat i know, oeminfo shows when you go to your system properties, right?

when you go to your system information, on the system summary, under system manufacturer and system model... it both shows "To Be Filled By O.E.M."

i thought it was from directx coz that's where i first noticed it...

thanks for helping,

This is an example if you want to customize it. You can run MAKECAB OEMINFO.INI from the command line and it will give you a OEMINFO.IN_ file you can drop in your I386 folder. Yes it shows up in system properties.
