Hi I have recently upgraded my motherboard and my processor but right clicking on my computer and properties still show my pc AS A Genuine Intell Processor instead of the celeron I now have. How can I find my system info ie motherboard, processor, and hard drive info if I go into device manager and click on hard drive controller and right click on primary this does not tell me what i have installed. i cannot even find the info to tell me what speed celeron processor i have. Any help would be appreciated. I did look in FAQ but did not see any info on this subject. Also searching for print system configuration came up with nothing either.

Thanks hyper I found all that info under that path you gave me but the info still says I have a pentium which I do not any more as I updated to celeron 750 from a pentium 233 but i have found the rest of the info I wanted. I will also try Bryco suggestion and see what this program is like. Does anyone know how to update my system info so it says celeron 750 instead of Pentium Intel?
