Run
Code: 
reg export HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OEMInformation %userprofile%\desktop\OEM.reg

If you want to set it at installation time, you can use Unattend.xml. See OEMInformation

Click to expand...
Yes. Open the sources folder and create the folder structure:
Code: 
sources
  $OEM$
    $$
That is $OEM$ inside sources, $$ inside $OEM$. The $$ folder content will be copied to Windows folder during installation. You can create any subfolders inside $$, like "OEM" to match the answer file example.
