Registry Hack??

Mar 2, 2004 9:51AM PST

Hi there.

I have an NEC Versa LXi notebook. PIII600MHz / 128MBRam / Win98SE.

On the "System Properties" screen, I would like to put my own info in there. ie: There is a graphic in the lower left part of the window. I would like to put my own graphic in there. Also, I will be giving this machine to my daughter and I want to list my info in the "Support Information" tab. Is this info hidden in the registry somewhere?

I seem to recall a long time back someone mentioning how to go about doing this, but I can't seem to find the info.

Also, as a side bar, how do you search for a topic now that the forums have changed? (I've been gone a while.)

Thanks for the help.

Rick

1. On the "System Properties" screen, I would like to put my own info

Best I can do is, "Use OEM Hooks to Customize Support Info."

2. how do you search for a topic now that the forums have changed?

I'm sorry to say, "You don't since there isn't one for the forum."
