Creating an OEM Logo

Follow the steps below to create and update the custom logo into the Intel® BIOS.

  1. Create a temporary folder on your hard drive.
  2. Download the LOGOTOOLS.ZIP file. Put the file in the temporary folder.
  3. Download the BIOS package. Put the file in the temporary folder.
  4. Extract the contents of the BIOS package  into the temporary folder:

    • README.TXT
    • bios.zip
    • floppy.zip
    • recovery.zip
    • AMIBOOT.000
    • AMIBOOT.001
    • AFUDOS.EXE
    • floppy.exe
    • install.bat
    • MAKEFLPY.BAT
  5. Insert a blank 1.44 MB disk into the floppy drive. Run floppy.exe from the temporary folder created in step 1. When completed, the floppy disk will contain the following files:

    • AUTOEXEC.BAT
    • COMMAND.COM
    • CONFIG.SYS
    • FINDDISK.EXE
    • HIMEM.SYS
    • IBMBIO.COM
    • IBMDOS.COM
    • VDISK.SYS
  6. From the temporary folder created in step 1, copy AFUDOS.EXE and install.bat to the floppy disk.

  7. In the temporary folder in step 1, extract the files in bios.zip (note the lower-case filename. This is a different zip file from BIOS.ZIP). The following files will be extracted:

    • AFUDOS.EXE
    • FBB.BAT
    • Sjr2a081.rom (note, this is an example filename. The actual filename varies by product)
  8. In the temporary folder created in step 1, extract the files in LOGOTOOLS.ZIP.
  9. Copy lha.exe to the floppy disk.
  10. Copy the custom bitmap file you created into the temporary folder that contains OEMLOGOD.EXE
  11. From the Windows Taskbar, select Start / Run. Type cmd in the and press <Enter> to open a DOS window.
  12. Change directories to the temporary folder in which you placed the files.
  13. Run the following command:

    OEMLOGOD <RomFileName>.rom <NewOEMImageFileName> [/options]

    Where
     
    • RomFileName is the rom image file. It has an extension of .rom. The name Sjr2a081.rom is used in the examples in this document.
    • NewOEMImageFileName is the name of your logo file.
    • [/options] is replaced with one of the following:
      - [/F] to force replacement of the OEM logo, even if the logo formats do not match.
      - [/N] to insert the 16-color BMP without converting it to the default AMI format.
      - [/FN] to force replacement of the OEM logo without converting a 16-color BMP to the default AMI format.
      - [/D] to deletes the logo module from the ROM file.
      Example command: OEMLOGOD sjr2a081.rom oem.bmp
      Several messages are displayed. Watch the compiling window to ensure the new logo compiled into the common BIOS image. Watch for the line indicated by the following diagram. If error messages are reported, please refer to Section 4.1, "Troubleshooting" of attached PDF document.

  14. Use the following command to compress your custom ROM image file:

    lha a <RomFileName>.LZH <RomFileName>.rom

    Where:

    -  <RomFileName>.LZH is the LZH file that will be created. This is the same RomFileName used in step 12, but with an extension of .LZH.
    -  <RomFileName>.rom is the RomFileName used in step 12.

    Example command: lha a sjr2a081.LZH sjr2a81.rom
  15. Copy the new <RomFileName>.LZH file to the floppy disk.
  16. Edit the file install.bat on the floppy disk to replace the contents with the following lines:

    @echo Please wait while files are copied to RAMdrive...
    @copy a:COMMAND.COM . /y >nul:
    @echo Copying AFUDOS.EXE to RAMdrive...
    @copy a:AFUDOS.EXE . /y >nul:
    @echo Copying LHA.EXE to RAMdrive...
    @copy a:LHA.EXE . /y >nul:
    @echo Copying BIOS Image to RAMdrive...
    @copy a:sjr2a081.LZH . /y >nul:
    @echo Building 2M BIOS Image...
    @lha e rom_image_file.LZH
    @echo Flash BIOS Image...
    @Echo Flash Main BIOS & Boot Block
    @AFUDOS /isjr2a081.rom /pb /n /c1
    @set comspec=%RAMDRIVE%\command.com
