Use Systeminfo to Learn More
I just read a little tip from the WXPNews e-mail newsletter about how to use systeminfo to get details about your system all in one place quickly.
Want to know how long your XP computer has been running without a reboot? It’s easy enough. Just follow these instructions:
- Click Start | Run and type cmd to open a command window
- At the command prompt, type systeminfo
- Scroll down to the line that says “System Up Time”
You’ll also find lots of other useful information here, such as your BIOS version, the location of your page file and how many hot fixes you have installed. Give it a look.
Sure you could find this information in other places through a nice, clean, friendly UI, but when you just need the details quick and dirty this may come in handy. In addition, you get some information that you normally wouldn’t get in other places like the System Up Time mentioned above and your original install date.
