| <FONT SIZE="+1">Wanna have your own logo <B> and </B> a Support Information button? | |
| </FONT><P> | |
| <IMG SRC="support.gif" WIDTH="304" HEIGHT="149" ALT="Support Button" Align="left"> | |
| Right click the <B> My Computer </B> icon on your desktop.. then click | |
| Properties. Shown here is the section on the bottom of the General tab. Yours may | |
| be blank or show the logo of your computer manufacturer. | |
| This is done with two files located in your Windows/system folder. | |
| <I>Oeminfo.ini</I>, is a simple text file that can be either created | |
| or edited with notepad. <I>Oemlogo.bmp</I>, is the Logo (picture) | |
| under Manufactured and Supported by: | |
| <P> | |
| <B>Tell me more... you say?</B> | |
| <P> | |
| Well... Let's start with the text file (<I>Oeminfo.ini</I>). The format of this file is | |
| as follows: | |
| <P> | |
| [General]<BR> | |
| Manufacturer=TenTil :)<BR> | |
| Model=<BR> | |
| <P> | |
| [Support Information]<BR> | |
| Line1="--------------------------"<BR> | |
| Line2="If you are looking for support..."<BR> | |
| Line3="Look to a friend..."<BR> | |
| Line4=""<BR> | |
| Line5=" TenTil :)"<BR> | |
| Line6="--------------------------"<BR> | |
| <P> | |
| Copy the above text and paste into Notepad. Save the file as <I> | |
| Oeminfo.ini</I> in your Windows\system folder (usually C:\Windows\system). | |
| You now have a Support Information button. You can edit it to your liking. | |
| The first section is what is displayed to the right of the logo. You may | |
| enter whatever text you wish after Manufacture and Model. You'll notice | |
| I've chosen to leave Model blank.<P> | |
| The second section is what appears in the dialog box when the user clicks | |
| the Support Information button. The sequential line numbers must be used | |
| here. You seem to be able to add as many lines as you wish. The double quotes | |
| are also required. Have fun!! | |
| <P> | |
| <B>Wait Ten.. what about the logo??</B> | |
| <P> | |
| Oh yeah.. the logo.. Use any graphics program (Paint Shop Pro is one | |
| of my favorites) Windows95 Paint will work fine. Either edit the | |
| bitmap file Oemlogo.bmp you already have, or create a new one. It must be called <I>Oemlogo.bmp</I> | |
| and saved to the Windows\system folder (usually C:\Windows\system) | |
| The bitmap needs to be no larger than 180 by 114 pixels, and 256 colors | |
| seem to work best. Now for the tip nobody else will tell you. *smile* | |
| Windows is going to read all pixels matching the bottom left pixel as | |
| transparent!! cool huh? | |

| Wanna remove <B>Network Neighborhood</B> from your desktop? | |
| </FONT> | |
| <P> | |
| <I> I know you do .. we all do. We don't use it so we don't wanna look | |
| at it. Well, here is a fairly "safe" way of doing it.</I> | |
| <P> | |
| <OL><LI>Start <B> Poledit</B>. (You can find Poledit on the Windows95 CD | |
| in \Admin\Apptools\Poledit ) | |
| <LI>click File .. Open Registry | |
| <LI>select Local User | |
| <LI>select Shell | |
| <LI>select Restrictions | |
| <LI>check Hide Network Neighhborhood | |
| <LI>click OK | |
| <LI>close Poledit | |
| </OL> | |
| When asked to save changes to Registry choose yes. | |

| Wanna use <B>Windows Explorer</B> rather than <B> My Computer</B> | |
| for viewing Folders?</FONT> | |
| <P> | |
| Change the default for My Computer from<I> Open</I> to <I>Explore</I>.<BR> | |
| (saving the need for a separate shortcut). | |
| <P> | |
| Double click My Computer<BR> | |
| Select View / Options, Folder tab,<BR> | |
| make sure that browsing in a single window is selected.<BR> | |
| Select the File Types tab, scroll down and click on <I>Folder</I>, | |
| then the <I>Edit</I> button. Click on <I>Explore</I> and then <I>Set Default</I>. | |
| Click Close and Close again. | |
| Now when you double click My Computer on your desktop you will get | |
| Windows Explorer. <BR> | |
| (You can still right click and use Open if needed.) | |
