can use these utilities to help determine the identities of your

computers components:

In device manager highlight on the entire computer icon at the top of the

list. A printer icon will appear in the tool bar then print it to a file or

your printer. Caution make sure your printer has plenty of paper as you'll

get more info than you ever cared to know about your computers hardware

config.
