WIN98SE question
Hi Gang !
Has anyone ever had a Packard Bell version of Windows 98 running, and installed the Windows 98SE upgrade? I want to know if the Packard Bell logo remains in System Info when you click on the General Tab. Please don't answer yes unless you're sure. Takes a while to re-install Win98 in an old computer. :-) A llooooonnnggg time ago, I used to have a program that would allow you to make your own logo and install it there. That was many computers and hard drives ago......... no idea where to start looking. I would have to "steal" the PB logo ( probably do a screen capture ) and make it that way to paste it there. Unless someone has a better idea...... I know, I know, I KNOW! It's a mini-microscopic thing, but I WANT it there. Thanks for any help. bobwatts |

Sooooooo.....no one has ever tried it eh ? Well, it's a moot point now. I did some research, and it ridiculously simple to put whatever you want there. I have been changing most of my computers to Whizzbang, with logo picture, and when you click the Support button, I have inserted information there also. So with the Packard Bell .bmps and stuff that I have now, and being able to change the system information and logo at will, I can basically "create" my own *Packard Bell* version of whatever OS I want. If anyone is interested: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=218176 If that page is not clear, just google "change Windows system information" on the internet, and there are some beginner classes available. :-) bobwatts -- boBWatts®© EartH Watts Carburetion Service Whizzbang Computers Official collector of: transfat asian plastic junk trinkets ! |
