In reply to my own message, here is a link to what my oem info page from control panel shows: OEM Logo If someone who has a lenovo factory install of Windows 7 could post theirs for comparison, I would be most appreciative. Be sure to erase personal identifying information from your graphic as well as your Windows serial number. Thanks in advance! OEM Brander enables you to edit this information and to use your own logo, which will be automatically resized and scaled to fit. Unlike most OEM customization tools, OEM Brander supports editing this information on Windows XP to Windows 8 (and future versions if the process does not change).

Hi Guys, Does anyone Know on how to change the OEM boot splash screen logo, I have a custom laptop done and when I boot up the machine I get a brand name on boot up then.

When Windows 7 operating system is installed on a computer the default OEM logo is displayed when you go to system properties. Many users want to modify this setting just for fun whereas others may want to change the default logo for various licensing reasons. Default OEM logo is located at C:WindowsSystem32oobeinfo which is a .bmp file of a specific size. In order to modify the OEM logo you need to place another picture of your choice and it should be of the same size. You need to place the picture at the above location and also you need to modify the default from the registry. You can do so by following the steps given below:

What does OEM Info Tool do?

When you buy branded personal computers which come pre-installed with Windows, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) like Dell, Sony, etc. puts in the OEM information, thereby branding the Windows PC. This branding includes logo of the OEM, the support web site along with other information. But when you install Windows yourself from the Windows DVD, this OEM information is never set. This information is absent from the System Properties window. You can use the OEM Info Tool to add or modify this OEM information. You can put in any information you like, setting your personal picture as logo.

Using OEM Info Tool

First of all download the OEM Info Tool from the Downloads section. Extract the ZIP archive to any folder of your choice. OEM Info Tool comes separately both for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows operating systems. If you have 32-bit Windows, then double-click on OEMInfo32.exe. If you have 64-bit Windows, then double-click on OEMInfo64.exe.

Backup and Restore

If you have already set OEM information yourself or your OEM has set the information, then OEM Info Tool will show this information on the startup. In this case, it as highly advised that you backup your original information before making any changes. To make a backup of your current settings, select File → Backup. If later you want to restore the settings from the backup, you can choose File → Restore.

Adding and Modifying

If you have not set any OEM information previously, then OEM Info Tool will show up with all fields blank. You can add any information you want. You must fill all the fields and choose a logo file before you can save the changes. OEM Info Tool supports unicode, so you can type in any language that you prefer – the information does not have to be in English.

To choose a logo file, click on the button labeled Browse Logo. Alternatively, you can select from menu File → Browse Logo. OEM Info Tool supports many types of images like BMP, JPEG, PNG, GIF etc. Ideally, the logo file should be 120×120 pixels in size but OEM Info Tool can resize the larger images to proper size automatically.

After you have filled all the text fields and chosen a logo, click on the button labeled Change to save the information. Alternatively, you can choose from menu File → Change to save the information. After saving the OEM information, you will have to close and reopen the System Properties to see the changes. To open the System Properties window, press the key combination Windows Key + Pause. In Windows Vista/7, you can also right-click on Start Menu → Computer and select Properties to open the System Properties window.
