Hi

If you mean the ProducKey, try Belarc:

Yes, you are looking for information from SMBIOS. Take a look on MSDN for
WMI classes available. If you can't find it, let me know and I'll try to
write up something.

I found a lot of info on different wmi keys but haven't figured out how I can
acutally get the information out into a text file.

If there is some document that explains the syntax and what type of script
file or program I can use to get that info out.
Thanks for the help.

Hi,

With VBScript:

'--------------------8<----------------------
Const OverwriteIfExist = -1
Const OpenAsASCII = 0

' File that result will be written to
strOutFile = "C:\SerialNr.txt"

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

strComputer = "." ' use "." for local computer

Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

Set colBIOS = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_BIOS")

For Each objBIOS in colBIOS
strSerialNr = objBIOS.SerialNumber
Next

' Create file
Set fOutFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile(strOutFile, _
OverwriteIfExist, OpenAsASCII)

fOutFile.WriteLine strSerialNr
fOutFile.Close
'--------------------8<----------------------
