Abstract

A computer system and a computer information display method thereof are provided. In the method, a computer information management unit stores computer information of an application program in a storage unit. During a system login process of the computer system, a processing unit reads the computer information form the storage unit, and displays the computer information and a login dialog on a screen unit.

Claims

1. A computer information display method, comprising:

storing computer information of an application program in a storage unit by a computer information management unit;

reading the computer information by a processing unit during a system login process; and

displaying the computer information and a login dialog on a screen unit by the processing unit.

2. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the system login process is performed when a computer system enters from a power-off mode, resumes from a sleeping mode, or enters from a screen saver mode.

3. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the computer information is comprised of one or a combination of email information, schedule information, weather information, and multimedia file information.

4. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 2, wherein the computer information management unit stores the computer information of the application program in the storage unit before the computer system enters the power-off mode, the sleeping mode or the screen saver mode.

5. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the processing unit displays an information display frame on the screen unit, and the information display frame comprises the computer information and the login dialog.

6. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 5, wherein the login dialog comprises a password dialog.

7. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the processing unit displays a system login frame after displaying the information display frame on the screen unit, wherein the information display frame comprises the computer information.

8. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 7, wherein the system login frame comprises the login dialog.

9. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the computer information management unit provides a user interface for selecting the application program and setting public content of the related computer information to be displayed.

10. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 7, wherein the system login frame further comprises a logout dialog, and when the logout dialog is selected, the processing unit displays the information display frame on the screen unit.

11. The computer information display method as claimed in claim 1, wherein when the computer system is connected to a network, the computer information management unit updates the computer information of the application program.

12. A computer system, comprising:

a storage unit, storing an application program;

a computer information management unit, collecting computer information of the application program for storing in the storage unit;

a processing unit, reading the computer information from the storage unit during a system login process of the computer system; and

a screen unit, wherein the processing unit displays the computer information and a login dialog on the screen unit.

13. The computer system as claimed in claim 12, wherein the system login process is performed when the computer system enters from a power-off mode, resumes from a sleeping mode, or enters from a screen saver mode.

14. The computer system as claimed in claim 12, wherein the computer information is comprised of one or a combination of email information, schedule information, weather information, and multimedia file information.

15. The computer system as claimed in claim 13, wherein the computer information management unit stores the computer information of the application program in the storage unit before the computer system enters the power-off mode, the sleeping mode or the screen saver mode.

16. The computer system as claimed in claim 12, wherein the processing unit displays an information display frame on the screen unit, and the information display frame comprises the computer information and the login dialog.

17. The computer system as claimed in claim 16, wherein the login dialog comprises a password dialog.

18. The computer system as claimed in claim 12, wherein the processing unit displays a system login frame after displaying the information display frame on the screen unit, wherein the information display frame comprises the computer information.

19. The computer system as claimed in claim 18, wherein the system login frame comprises the login dialog.

20. The computer system as claimed in claim 12, wherein the computer information management unit provides a user interface for selecting the application program and setting public content of the related computer information to be displayed.

21. The computer system as claimed in claim 12, wherein the system login frame further comprises a logout dialog, and when the logout dialog is selected, the processing unit displays the information display frame on the screen unit.

22. The computer system as claimed in claim 12, wherein when the computer system is connected to a network, the computer information management unit updates the computer information of the application program.
