PC helper utility

[Guest Korvet]

I want help person to solve PC problems, remotely, so I need first know all

PC configuration. Person is very non techie, and can no provide me any info

about its hardware and software configuration. I know only PC is win 98. So

I'm just wondering is there some standalone exe that when run will collect

all hardware and software installed and save report in text file on desktop.

I mean *standalone* exe that does not require installation and even has no

GUI (foolproof application). Or, even better, VBScript that do this work.

Person dont know how to get system configuration info.

 

Regards

MSINFO32.EXE is part of Win98 and has this function.

YW.

I also use all the other utilities mentioned in the other replies, but SIW seemed to

be the best one for your described use.

 

Good luck.
