I need a no-install system information tool I can carry around on a
JumpDrive similar to Belarc Advisor. I would like the report to be in
the same HTML or text format as the output of Belarc Advisor. I recall
testing one a few months ago and thought it was Belarc but the download
available is an install version.

WinAudit. Blows the others away, only 111 KB, free, no install, save
output as text/html/xml/csv.

This program is very nice and small. The only thing missing from its
report is installed hardware detection.

Look in the "Peripherals Detected" section.

I did. This is what I get:

Display size 1152 x 864 pixels
Mouse present Yes
Buttons on mouse 5
Mouse buttons are swapped No
Network installed Yes
Keyboard type IBM enhanced (101- or 102-key) keyboard
Printer installed Wave
Printer installed Tsunami
Printer installed Symantec Fax Starter Edition
Printer installed SPECTRE
Printer installed SIMPRN

There is no provision for hardware installed within the computer.
Still, it is acceptable for the rest of the report.

Yes, that is the one I tried before. However upon closer inspection I
notice its report includes secret stuff like saved passwords and
usernames. Since I want to use this tool to gather system information
about computers I maintain I don't think I want to tempt myself with
something unethical. I will stick with the WinAudit program for now.
The HTML output looks good. Thanks for your suggestions.
