Introduction How many times have you walked up to a system in your office and needed to click through several diagnostic windows to remind yourself of important aspects of its configuration, such as its name, IP address, or operating system version? Because BGInfo simply writes a new desktop bitmap and exits, you don't have to worry about it consuming system resources or interfering with other applications.

Troubleshooting Microsoft Windows Event Logs Wallpaper system I have been a huge fan of SysInternals long before Microsoft acquired the company a few year ago and rebadged its founders/super talents Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell. If you ever get a chance to see/hear Mark in person I highly recommend doing so. His sessions at TechEd, etc. are always among the highest rated and his depth is unbelievable. In addition to Mark and Bryce’s speaking abilities, they have written some of the best utilities for Administrators and Developers (maybe ever!). Hyperbole intended. One of my favorite, everyday use, Administrator must-have utilities is SysInternals’ BgInfo. You can download BgInfo from here (read the EULA) to see for yourself what it does to your computer(s). Since I love EBS Administrators, I’ve gone a step further and saved my BgInfo configuration/settings file so you to can display the information in the above screenshot on your EBS servers. Instructions to configure BgInfo on your EBS servers: Enjoy.
