WMI information without WMI

[#rootworm]

dmidecode 2.8 for windows

i don't take any credit for the changes necessary to make this work on windows, i just found found a diff file and updated the original source and compiled it. (it also compiles as-is on cygwin)

get help by using the --help or -h parameter (i.e. dmidecode --help)

dmidecode without parameters will list all DMI information, attached is an example of dmidecode>dmi.txt

dmidecode -t only shows DMI information for the specified type.

Valid type keywords are:

bios

system

baseboard

chassis

processor

memory

cache

connector

slot

dmidecode -s only shows the specified string from DMI.

Valid string keywords are:

bios-vendor

bios-version

bios-release-date

system-manufacturer

system-product-name

system-version

system-serial-number

system-uuid

baseboard-manufacturer

baseboard-product-name

baseboard-version

baseboard-serial-number

baseboard-asset-tag

chassis-manufacturer

chassis-type

chassis-version

chassis-serial-number

chassis-asset-tag

processor-family

processor-manufacturer

processor-version

processor-frequency

dmidecode -s system-manufacturer i think could be a possible alternative to OEMSCAN

IMPORTANT NOTE: existence/accuracy of DMI (SMBIOS) information is dependent on your computer manufacturer setting the correct information.

Thanks, very usefull program

[#rootworm]

added vpddecode, biosdecode, and ownership from the dmidecode project.

also included the source with projects for dev-c++.

Three additional tools come with dmidecode:

biosdecode prints all BIOS related information it can find

ownership retrieves the "ownership tag" that can be set on Compaq computers

vpddecode prints the "vital product data" information that can be found in almost all IBM computers

biosdecode.exe

ownership.exe

vpddecode.exe

I remember a few months ago, i was looking for a tool i can run from command line to get infos about SMBIOS.

Multi Manufacturer Pre-Activation

I was disappointed to find this dmidecode website but no compiled version of the tool.

@#rootworm

So i want to thanks you for compiling it and share it with MSFN community.
