I have downloaded a program from
here=http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/PsInfo.html called Psinfo. But it
is a command line app, I.e. when I click the exe. file a command prompt
window appears for a few seconds and then disappears. How do I either make
the window stay open so I can view the information it gathers or have the
results printed to aa readable file. I am not a command line user here,
strictly mouse user, so instructions must be explicit. There is very little
help at the website(or at least help that i can make sense of) hence my
inquiry here.

Start>Run>cmd [enter]

Now you have a command prompt. Navigate to the location of psinfo.exe
and type it. Ex.

C:\
C:\psinfo.exe [enter]

Place a copy of psinfo.exe into either your C:\Windows of
C:\Windows\System32 folder.
Once you have psinfo.exe in place, go to Start -> Run and enter
cmd.exe in the Open box.
Click OK.
In the command prompt window, enter psinfo.exe to get basic
information.
Enter the following to direct the output to a text file on your
C drive.

psinfo.exe >C:\psinfo.txt

Enter psinfo.exe /? to get info on available options.

Good luck
