Gathering System Information under C++

bluesteel

I am currently needing to get information about windows ver and also about processor properties, video card, main board name, etc, and i wanted to know whether there were some functions which returned strings containing that information. Any information is much appreciated.

Well,you can use system("ver") to get windows version and system("vol") to get hard disk
label name and serial number.

Or use MSinfo32.exe ,under Windows offcourse, and export it content to a text file.

Then read in that file and print out inforamtions

If i used system("ver"), how can i save the output?? I know there is a function that saves what's written in the console, any ideas which fnction it is??

You can display the output to a file and read the content from file. Finally, display it at stdout.
