SYMPTOMS
If you create a System Properties bitmap (Oemlogo.bmp) that matches the dimensions specified in the Microsoft OEM Preinstall Kit (OPK) documentation or in the online Help of Setup Manager in Microsoft Windows XP, the bottom portion of the bitmap may not appear when the System Properties dialog box appears. This problem occurs in non-English versions of the operating system (OS) because of differences in display font styles and scaling.



CAUSE
The OPK documentation incorrectly states that the System Properties logo (Oemlogo.bmp) has the following dimensions:
 * Microsoft Windows 2000: 176 by 118 pixels
 * Microsoft Windows XP: 172 by 110 pixels

The online Help for Setup Manager in Windows XP incorrectly states the size is 172 by 118 pixels.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows XP. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

The correct sizes for the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) Branding and the System Properties bitmaps are:
 * Windows 2000: 176 by 110 pixels
 * Windows XP: 172 by 100 pixels

You can resolve this problem if you make sure that your bitmap dimensions are not greater than the following specifications:
 * Windows 2000: 176 by 110 pixels
 * Windows XP: 172 by 100 pixels



STATUS
The OPK documentation and the Setup Manager online Help contain the incorrect dimensions.

This problem was first corrected in Windows XP Service Pack 1.
