Modifying OEM properties listed in system properties

I have chased Vista through the xp 64 and the Vista Betas I have it where I need to be, 5.8 on the experience level. I have modified the information shown on those pages. My question is under admin tools system information there are several lines that I would like to modify. System Manufacturer to be filled by OEM, and system model to be filled by OEM are there any ideas Thanks

Hi,

Did you try filling in the details you wanted using that app. , restarting , then uninstalling it. Think the entries you made would remain.

Re: Modifying OEM properties listed in system properties

Hi,

If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can right click and modify the names for Registered Owner and Registered Organization strings.

You will find them under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current version. Click on the Current version folder in the left pane and they appear in the right pane.

The OEM info string is under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current version\OEMInformation. I have never tried editing this one.

Hope this helps

Sorry there is OEM there but that does not change the 2 lines I would like tto change. I have modified those and they work as they are supposed to.
