smokin How to: Edit System Manufacturer/Model

Since I built this system, I wouild like to edit the 'system manufacturer & system model' that show up in the system information sections such as 'system properities' or the 'directx diagnostic tool' front page.

What file or registry setting do I need modify?

Thank you,

Necrobot

That worked for 'System Properties.

But nothing has changed in the 'System Information -->system summary section or the dxdiag front page.

what other files need edit?

Interesting! Don't know off the top of my head, and a quick Google didn't turn up anything!?

Anybody else have any ideas?
