Topic says it all. In VMware (haven't tested it on a real PC yet) my uA disk gives me an out of Virtual Memory error, which is . Anyway, is there a way to write a list of running processes to a local text file? I'm installing everything from T-12 so I can't check Task Manager.

Another q, any way on starting and stopping services with batch files?

Tnx in advance!

tasklist > file.txt

wmic /output:file.txt process get name

pslist > file.txt

and lot more...

Probably best for debugging is command

wmic /output:file.txt process list full

Thanks! But I have windows XP Home Edition though, so the wmic won't work.

Never worked with Home edition, but AFAIR there isnt wmic and tasklist... In that case just include pslist or any 3rd party cmd utility to list processes...

Or create process.vbs and type following inside:

On Error Resume Next
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_Process",,48)
For Each objItem in colItems
    Wscript.Echo "Caption: " & objItem.Caption
    Wscript.Echo "CommandLine: " & objItem.CommandLine
    Wscript.Echo "CreationClassName: " & objItem.CreationClassName
    Wscript.Echo "CreationDate: " & objItem.CreationDate
    Wscript.Echo "CSCreationClassName: " & objItem.CSCreationClassName
    Wscript.Echo "CSName: " & objItem.CSName

    Wscript.Echo "MaximumWorkingSetSize: " & objItem.MaximumWorkingSetSize
    Wscript.Echo "MinimumWorkingSetSize: " & objItem.MinimumWorkingSetSize
    Wscript.Echo "Name: " & objItem.Name
    Wscript.Echo "OSCreationClassName: " & objItem.OSCreationClassName
    Wscript.Echo "OSName: " & objItem.OSName
    Wscript.Echo "OtherOperationCount: " & objItem.OtherOperationCount
    Wscript.Echo "OtherTransferCount: " & objItem.OtherTransferCount
    Wscript.Echo "PageFaults: " & objItem.PageFaults
    Wscript.Echo "PageFileUsage: " & objItem.PageFileUsage
    Wscript.Echo "ParentProcessId: " & objItem.ParentProcessId
    Wscript.Echo "PeakPageFileUsage: " & objItem.PeakPageFileUsage
    Wscript.Echo "PeakVirtualSize: " & objItem.PeakVirtualSize
    Wscript.Echo "PeakWorkingSetSize: " & objItem.PeakWorkingSetSize
    Wscript.Echo "Priority: " & objItem.Priority
    Wscript.Echo "PrivatePageCount: " & objItem.PrivatePageCount
    Wscript.Echo "ProcessId: " & objItem.ProcessId
    Wscript.Echo "QuotaNonPagedPoolUsage: " & objItem.QuotaNonPagedPoolUsage
    Wscript.Echo "QuotaPagedPoolUsage: " & objItem.QuotaPagedPoolUsage

    Wscript.Echo "WriteOperationCount: " & objItem.WriteOperationCount
    Wscript.Echo "WriteTransferCount: " & objItem.WriteTransferCount
Next

Then just call this script by

cscript //nologo process.vbs

BTW Exclude everything U dont want to see of course
