I'm looking to grab Client ID information like:

1. Processor ID:
2. Computer name:
3. Hard Drive Serial:

What is the easist way to get these values.

Hi, Peter

you might want to take a look at WMI - see Readme file at
<SDK>v1.1\Samples\Technologies\Interop\Applications\WMI

While computer name you can get using SystemInformation class, other too are
a bit too deep in for .Net.

* (E-Mail Removed) (Peter) scripsit:
> 1. Processor ID:


Doesn't always exist.

> 2. Computer name:


Can be changed.

> 3. Hard Drive Serial:


Can be changed in some cases or will change when replacing a corrupted
hdd.

I would not base anything on these values.
