Set system properties logo and information

On the ‘general’ tab of the ‘System Properties’ dialog (right click ‘My Computer’ and select ‘Properties’) will normally be displayed the manufacturer’s logo, company and support information (assuming these have bee set up). This note describes how to change this or set net information up from scratch.

There are two parts to updating that panel - the graphic and the text information.

To create the text information, create a text file named ‘OEMINFO.INI’, and place it in ‘c:\winnt\system32’ (or presumably ‘c:\windows\system32’ for a Windows 9x variant). The format of the file is as follows:

[general]
Manufacturer=Some Manufacturer Name

[Support Information]
Line1=For Technical Support contact:
Line2=
Line3=Manufacturer service dept.
.
.

The first section, "[general]", lists the information shown on the System Properties panel. This can take an optional additional line:

Model=…

The second section, "[Support Information]", is optional. If added, then the "Support Information" button will appear. Clicking that button brings up a panel with the text listed.

Be aware that leading spaces are ignored, so if you want to indent some text then be sure to enclose it in quotes, for example:

Line1=For Technical Support contact:
Line2=
Line3=Service dept.
Line4=" Tel: NNN..."

Comments can be added to the OEMINFO.INF file, and these should be preceded by a semicolon ‘;’ for example:

; Information displayed in System Properties
[general]
.
.

To add the graphic, create a ‘.BMP’ file containing the graphic, name it ‘OEMLOGO.BMP’, and place it in the ‘c:\winnt\system32’ directory. Note that the logo will not appear unless the ‘OEMINFO.INI’ file exists and has a ‘Manufacturer’ entry. The size of the graphic may need to be altered to get it to fit correctly in the allocated space. The BMP file should be an RGB BMP file sized about:

96 x 96	Windows 95/98 small fonts
120 x 120	Windows 95/98 large fonts
176 x 110	Windows 2000
172 x 100	Windows XP

These sizes are taken from the Microsoft documentation, but there seems to be some degree of variation even on the same operating system so be prepared to tweak the size of the logo to fit best with your target system.

If all you want to do is to simply remove the manufacturer's logo and information then you can do this by simply deleting or renaming the OEMLOGO.BMP and OEMINFO.INI files.

Error: Could not start the DHCP Client Service on local computer

DHCP Client Service may not automatically. When you attempt to start the Service manually, the following error may be displayed:

Error: Could not start the DHCP Client Service on local computer

Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start.

Resolution

The DHCP Client Service in Windows XP, depends on these three components:

• AFD
• NetBios over Tcpip
• TCP/IP Protocol Driver

If one of the above drivers fail to start, then the DHCP Client Service may not start.

Step I - Make sure that the three driver files are present

Open Windows Explorer and navigate to %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder. Make sure that the following files are present in the folder:

• afd.sys
• tcpip.sys
• netbt.sys

If one or more of the above driver files are missing, extract them from the Windows XP CD-ROM or from the ServicePackFiles\i386 folder, whichever is the latest version.

If any other additional drivers or Services are mentioned in the DEPENDENCIES section, you need to remove them via the registry. Follow these steps:

• Click Start, Run and type Regedit.exe
• Navigate to the following branch:
• Backup the branch to a REG file

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Services \ Dhcp

• Double-click DependOnService value and set its data as follows:

Tcpip
Afd
NetBT

• Close Regedit.exe

Step III - Verify that the Dependency Service / components are running

Next step is to verify that the three dependency components are running. Follow the steps below:

• Click Start, Run and type DEVMGMT.MSC
• In the View menu, click Show hidden devices
• Double-click Non-Plug and Play drivers section
• Double-click the entry AFD, and click the Driver tab
• Set the Startup type to System.
• Start the service. Note down the error message if any.
• Similarly start the two other drivers namely:

• TCP/IP Protocol Driver
• NetBios over Tcpip

• Close Device Manager and restart Windows.

Dell TFT - usb and card reader problems

* Power off the monitor
* Disconnect all cabling from the bottom and/or sides of the monitor (especially the power cord). Disconnecting the power cord releases all circuit latches "resetting" them
* Press and hold the monitor power button down for 5 seconds
* Reconnect only the monitor power cord and either the #1 blue VGA or #2 white DVI (not both)
* Power on the monitor
* The PC should already be on. The monitor should auto sense the #1 blue VGA or #2 white DVI. If it does not, press the Input Select button and change to #1 VGA or #2 DVI

Test the Card Reader and USB ports.
