Cannot make correct OEM with OEMizer

Hello everyone!
I made some oem pakages with OEMizer and cooked it into ROM, but in my ppc, the contents of the shortcut turned empty. Why is this?
I checked the content of the shortcut before cooking into ROM and I saw it was "#\windows\a.exe", but it will turned to null in my ppc.
I extracted the OEM in the PPCKitchen software and check the shortcuts in it, I saw some different numbers before "#", just like "38 #\windows\b.exe" and "56 #\windows\c.exe". What does the nuber means? Where is it from?
Thanks!

I've known part of the answer!
Unicode is not right for lnk file!
But I still don't understand the number before "#" in the lnk file.

Inside a link file, say poker.lnk it would look like this:

#32"\Program Files\Poker\Poker.exe"

The # 32 is the length in characters from, to and includes the quotes. So the actual link "\Program Files\Poker\Poker.exe" is #32 characters long.

You can check out my tutorials to give you a boost, I have one on creating OEM's too. But sorry I seldomly use OEMIzer... Goodluck!
