Default Monitor details using WMI


Can I get the monitor make, model and serial number using WMI. I would like
to include these details on an asset tracking database that I'm working on.
I can get PC make model and serial number, but the monitor eludes me. The
network is running HP/Compaq D530s.

Cheers,

DLM

Hi DLM,

Download the WMI tools from the address:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...f853-1120-48db-
8cc5-f2abdc3ed314&displaylang=en

ONce installed use the object browser to see what WMI offers for your
operating system. I've been using WMI for only a few months so I'm no an
expert but I do know the number of providers vary greatly for each due to
the fact the WMI technology is emerging.

Hope this helps
