Click Start, click Run, type cmd.exe, and then press ENTER.
Type SET DEVMGR_SHOW_DETAILS=1, and then press ENTER.
Go to start/run Type start devmgmt.msc, and then press ENTER. In Device Manager the properties for a device should now provide a Details tab that contains additional information about the device.
