Hi Guys, Is there any way to get Computer CPU ID, Processor ID & OS Serial No of an users machine in VB.NET? Regards, Vipul Mehta.

Terry, There is not a real serial number, there is sometimes a processor number and with a computer connected to a LAN or whatever that uses a network adapter, a Mac address, and probably more numbers, however as far as I have seen not an always existing unique one. You can find those starting reading here reading (after that a is a little sample in this message). http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...Management.asp http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...classtopic.asp It are a lot of collections in collections. I have not at the moment a sample at hand for those numbers, however see this sample how to get drive information. I do not know where I got it anymore. Add a reference to 'System.Management.dll'. Dim disk As New ManagementObject( _ 'Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID='C:'' ) Dim diskProperty As PropertyData For Each diskProperty In disk.Properties Console.WriteLine( _ '{0} = {1}', _ diskProperty.Name, diskProperty.Value ) Next diskProperty /// I hope this helps?

Does anyone know how to retrieve the system serial number? I'm writing an auditing program and need to grab that little bit of info. Thanks!
