    @NisseHult...

    looks like you are using a newer script, with an older logos folder ....

    newer script copies the logos and reg file from MultiBrand_OEM's folder directly to system32\oobe\info folder.

    the older script copied the logos from Muiltibrand_OEM's folder to sub-folder "name of brand" which contained brand logos and reg file.

    I suspect your logos and reg file are installed directly in oobe\info folder ....but the reg file inside the info folder, points to "subfolder" with your logo .... but logo not in a sub folder , so does not display.

    @searchengine, there is no info folder in system32\oobe\ and when i reboot the Laptop wont start up it´s just a black screen, i have to close down the computer and then start it again :D
    So i think you are right about that i have in somehowe mixed up the newest script with the old one hehe..

    I will reinstall again :)

    It did not work, i think my one month old Laptop have problem.. it complains about Intel(R) 5 Series 4 Port SATA AHCI Controller, that must be the one to controll the disk. So if it´s a problem there maybe it has problem to execute all scripts, and also i still cant reboot, it´s like the system goes into some sleep mode :p

    I have also wondered way it almost take 15 minutes to copy a cd to my disk, it must be something wrong!
    And i who have deleted the oem partision, i am sure they gonna say thats the reason way it´s a problem and i have to pay for it. If thats the case, i will ask if that is the same person who told me that home premium 64bits system only have support for 3Gb ram also clames that a ide controller brokes if you delete a partision..

    * Compaq/HP OEM ID problem - hopefully fixed
    It would appear that Compaq and HP use the same OEM ID "HPQOEM" for slic 2.1 activation.

    This makes application of branding between Compaq/HP a little more tricky, but hopefully, the small script change that looks for an alternative way to identify "Compaq"; will solve Compaq/HP ID problem.
    I won't know for sure until Compaq users try.

    Thanks again for sharing your stuff. That's very much appreciated (at least by me. ;))

    One more question tho; is this Autounattend.xml-thing usable for both architectures or only x86/x64?

    it's usable on on x86, or x64 ... and also usable on x86/x64 AIO. :)

    @jlgager - You're better off removing the old download links (which have Windows Loader 1.8.8 and 1.8.9) and just keeping the new one, since it will work on all the systems. :)

    Thanks for the mirrors though!

    Dear Admins,

    I would like to make a suggestion to you:

    Please unpin ODIN-The-hardware-independent-activator-SUPPORT-CANCELED-INFO and make this thread as a sticky. Do we really still need the ODIN thread as a sticky?

    I know, ODIN is a great project but due the canceled support here it would be totally okay (at least for me), when this thread get pinned because its still alive and people get their answer/support if they asked.

    Please consider my suggestion. Thank you!

    Compaq Branding

    Looks like auto-branding "Compaq" may be a little awkward. o_O

    Can any "Compaq" PC users save the following code as a cmd file, and run the command .... 4 x text files will be produced. I'm hoping that not all text files are blank, and that at least one, or more has "Compaq", somewhere on the txt.

    If "Compaq" can be found, then auto-branding should be doable. :)

    Code:
    @echo off
    
    WMIC BASEBOARD | findstr "COMPAQ Compaq compaq" >>BBOARD.txt
    WMIC BIOS | findstr "COMPAQ Compaq compaq" >>BIOS.txt
    WMIC COMPUTERSYSTEM | findstr "COMPAQ Compaq compaq" >>SYSTEM.txt
    WMIC CSPRODUCT | findstr "COMPAQ Compaq compaq" >>PRODUCT.txt
    
    EXIT

    cheers alfa ...

    hopefully all/most Compaq models can now be auto-branded, using those strings ;)
