The OEM information is reflected in the System Properties
page when right-clicking My Computer/Properties, but is
not the same as the persistent OEM information obtained
from the System Tools program group application System
Information.

From my search on the web, this information is from the
SMBIOS . Check http://www.dmtf.org/standards/smbios . The
information appears to be stored as a table which is
memory mapped to the physical memory. However, its
location is not specified. WMI also gets handles to this
information somehow.

I would appreciate pointers on how to retrieve this
information using kernel mode code in XP.

Thanks
Dibyendu
