Saturday, November 24, 2012 6:18 AMI have some DELL laptops and have random DELL Win7 professional x64 DVD disc . I deployed a new windows 7 x64 professiona OS into a DELL E6410 laptop by the MDT 2012 update 1 system, but I cannot see the DELL logo icon in the Properties of System area. if I install OS with DELL disc directly into DELL laptop I can see the logo.

There's two methods of doing this, both have the same result to choose what's easiest for you.
You can do this through the Unattend.xml file, by adding the OEMInformation node to the 4 - Specialize phase.
Full path is Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup | OEMInformation
You can configure the Logo here (note you can right click items in the menu on the right where youre supposed to fill in the value's and open the related help topic), additionally you can add information such as the Manufacturer, Model, Support hours/phone/url.
You can also all of these items through the registry directly (all of them are REG_SZ):
A sample .reg file is included below
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OEMInformation] “Logo”=”C:\\Windows\\System32\\OOBE\\Logo.bmp” “Manufacturer”=”Company Name” “SupportHours”=”Mon-Fri | 8am - 5pm″ “SupportPhone”=”123-456-7890″ “SupportURL”=”http://intranet/help”
Additionally you could add Manufacturer and Model in the same way as well. Using the CustomConfiguration script created by Maik Koster you can do this even using MDT variables, so it would use the MDT Model property, and write that to the registy for example, same for Manufacturer.
