OEM Information & Logo..

[to28dk]

Hello

i was reading the unattended CD/DVD Guide and it says that oeminfo.ini and oemlogo.bmp should be created and set then put in a folder called "system32" and put in a folder called "$$" the path would look like this: C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$$\System32\

goind throug this was somehow easy..but what i cannot understand is that i have found an unattended cd of windows xp which have the logo and doesn't have any system32 or $$ folder..can be there any other method to put a logo and so on?

where can be the logo located in the cd?

anyone to help me

thank you.

If you put the file in $OEM$\$$\system32, it will automatically be copied to your Windows\system32 directory, but you can put it anywhere on the cd and use the COPY command in a batch file to copy it yourself.

u could put it in i386 folder cabbed & set the directories in sourcedisksFiles (in txtsetup.sif) which is harder, but more professional looking if thats what your going 4

[to28dk]

im so confused guys lol

can anyone please clarify things for me

thank you guys

[MCT]

compress the files using Jcarles utility (search the site) or u can just use makecab (comes with windows) & in txtsetup.sif add these lines under SourceDisksFiles

Oeminfo.ini = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0

Oemlogo.bmp = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0

[to28dk]

let's say i have added those lines..how about the Oeminfo.ini & Oemlogo.bmp where in the cd they would be placed? in i386 or system32 under $$ folder?

thank you for ur help guys and im sorry for asking a lot lol

greetings

@to28dk:

I will try to clarify it for you.

You can use the "COPY" command to copy files from one destination to another.

example: You want to copy the file oemlogo.bmp from your cd drive (d:\ for example) to C:\windows\system32

You can now put in a batch file:

COPY "D:\oemlogo.bmp" %systermroot%\system32\"

and your file will be copyed.

You can also make a selfextracting winrar file (SFX extraction) that automaticly and silently copys your file (use the search to find out how.)

Then we've got MCT's suggestion:

You can also make windows copy the file automaticly during his setup.

To do this, you need to Cab the file (transform oemlogo.bmp in to oemlogo.bm_) this can be done by using the makecab command (makecab oemlogo.bmp) after that you put your cab file in the I386 folder, and you edit the txtsetup.sif file so that windows now copys that file. (the most diffecult methode)

These are all diferent methodes to copy the file without using the $$ folder.

Hope this helps

Then we've got Astalavista's suggestion:

[Astalavista]

ok I will guide u step by step just bec. i am feeling nice

OPTION 1

find this path in your XP setup folder

\XP2\$OEM$\$$\System32

oh, NO, i can't find...

then make it, create the folders

now throw in your OEMINFO.INI and oemlogo.bmp in that folder.

Option 2

Here is a Winrar SFX that will autoExtract to Windows\system32\

replace the content w/ your own OEMINFO.INI and oemlogo.bmp

look to the bottom post for the correct link

Option 3

MCT method.

if u still can't figure it out god help u

[to28dk]

what would happen if i use both methods lol..would logos have a conflict or the first established would take place in the logo's place?

would be there a conflict?

thank you altavista for ur help..

but what does the system32.exe work for? does it solve anything in this?

thank you much..
