Customize the Manufacturer Support Info in Windows 7

If you have a computer with pre-installed Windows 7 or Vista, most likely you’ll notice the
manufacturer’s support information when you look in the system properties window. If you’d like to
customize this information or use a picture of your own in this space, you can do so easily.
Right-click on Computer and choose Properties or use the Win+Break key combination to bring up the
System properties screen:

Close-up view:

To edit the information in this screen, you’ll need to open up your registry editor and navigate down to
the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OEMInformation

Note: If this key does not exist, you can download the following registry file, which you will want to
edit before double-clicking to add into the registry.

You can modify the following fields and put any values you’d like into them, with the exception of the
Logo key, which you probably shouldn’t change.

Manufacturer
SupportHours
SupportPhone
SupportURL
Logo

The last important step is to either create or modify a bitmap file stored at the location specified in the
Logo key, usually set to:

C:\Windows\System32\oemlogo.bmp

For best results, you’ll want to use a small logo file, preferably somewhere around 100×100
height/width. Also note that copying the file to that folder will require administrative permissions.
