How to detect CPU type and speed

[RobinSword]

Hi there!

I want my VB.NET-program to detect CPU type and speed like:
"Intel Pentium 3,06 GHz".
How can I do that with VB.NET ?

If there is the answer somewhere in the forum: Sorry, I didn't find
the
search-button, I can only search all GroupSrv.com and not a specific
forum...

Hi,

Add a reference to system.management.dll.

Dim moReturn As Management.ManagementObjectCollection

Dim moSearch As Management.ManagementObjectSearcher

Dim mo As Management.ManagementObject

moSearch = New Management.ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * from
Win32_Processor")

moReturn = moSearch.Get

For Each mo In moReturn

Dim strout As String = String.Format("{0} - {1}", mo("Name"),
mo("CurrentClockSpeed"))

Debug.WriteLine(strout)

Next
