Locating Hardware information

[P Renfree]

Where do I search for information about the hardware installed on my
computer.(How can I find out the type of video card and sound that I have
installed my computer?)

Thanks in advance

.
You can find the hardware information in the device

manager. If using Windows XP, click on start. Then
you'll find the control panel in the left hand (blue)
column of the start menu. When you have that open,
double click on the System icon and click on the hardware
tab. There will be a button called Device Manager.

If you are using '95, '98 or 2000 you will have to go to
settings after you click on the start button. Control
panel will be found there. It's the same as XP after
that.
