Impressive Computer Analyzer "Belarc Advisor" - Free Download

Its hosted at crucial. You go to Help up top, and then "Download the Belarc Advisor"
Direct Link - http://www.belarc.com/Programs/Crucial/advisor.exe

This is impressive. It shows you OS, speed and type of CPU, RAM, Cache, All Drives, Total HDD space, space free, Controllers, Adapters, the name of any kind of communcation device and every peice of software installed, Motherboard name, chips on it, Bus speed, How much memory installed (and of course a link to crucial to buy more memory), the partition breakdowns, and how much space free on each, Network drives, the names of any other devices, Software liscence numbers (it showed Microsoft and Westwood products for me), and probably most impressive of all, a list of all the software found on the computer and the version numbers of each one, and even a link next to each one to go into each software's root folder.

Thats alot of stuff for a ~500k file...This would be an excellent file to carry around on a tech floppy...This could be invalueable when troubleshooting a unfamiliar machine.

The only drawback is that you do have to install it (~2MB after install).

Give it a try.

Belarc was posted even earlier about 3-4 weeks ago I think in the Applications or Benchmark area. Its neat, but kinda static. Just generates a HTML output showing the state of your Hard/soft ware at a point of time. I find Sandra and some of the hard drive benchmarkers a tad more useful.

I used to make a spec sheet in powerpoint of all the devices in a computer and all apps I installed on someones computer when I sold a computer.
I can just run this thing on thier comp now and itll present me with a spec sheet. Saves me alot of work when I do that.

And..Its all in the subject line
