Go to Start -> Run and enter cmd.exe in the Open box.
Click OK.
In the command prompt window, enter ipconfig /all.
Look for a line titled "Physical Address".
You should see 6 groups of two digits with values that range
from 0 to 9 and A to F.
That's your MAC address.

You can also find your MAC address by doing the following:
Go to Start -> Control Panel and double click Network
Connections.
Right click the icon for your Local Area Connection and select
Status from the menu.
In Local Area Connection Status, click on the Support tab.
Hit the Details button.
In Network Connection Details, your MAC address will be listed
on the first line, "Physical Address".

Good luck

Copy and paste the text between the 2 lines below into Notepad. (Don't copy the lines)
Save the file as getmac.vbs to the desktop. Double click the file to run the script.

A dialog box will appear showing the mac address for all installed net adapters.

------------------------
Dim objNetworkAdapters, objAdapter, objWMI

Set objWMI = Nothing
Set objWMI = GetObject("winmgmts:")

' Get a list of IP-enabled adapters.
Set objNetworkAdapters = objWMI.ExecQuery("select * from " & _
"Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration where IPEnabled = 1")

For Each objAdapter In objNetworkAdapters
wscript.echo "Network adapter: " & objAdapter.Caption & " has MAC " & _
"address " & objAdapter.MacAddress
Next
