Know More About A System!!

Tagged:  

Guys..

When you want to explore your system hardware and software you will probably run “Microsoft System Information(MsInfo32)” or you will end up installing a utility to analyze your computer system.

However, you will be quite amazed to know Windows XP’s Help and Support Center provides an alternative method to do so.

To Investigate Your System- Do the following:

1. Go to Start &Help and Support.
2. Click on Use Tools to view your computer information and diagnose problems under Pick a task heading which Is located on the Centre page.
3. Select My Computer Information from the tools column

Now you can do the following:
 View general system information about this computer
 View the status of my system hardware and software
 Find information about the hardware installed on this computer
 View a list of Microsoft software installed on this computer
 View detailed system information (Msinfo32.exe)
 View running services
 View Group Policy settings applied
 View the error log
 View information for another computer.

I tried this on Windows XP installed on Linux via VirtualBox and it does really show the things. Didn't know when I was a dedicated Windows user some years ago! :D I have installed this only for the sake of VB and Oracle which I need as a part of my syllabus :D
