Is it a home built PC? If not a name brand you can probably reboot and hit Esc if you're getting a full screen logo. It should show you there.



Start -> Run -> MSINFO32 will show you some useful info.

Open "Control Panel" and then double-click on the "System" icon.
You should see a link for "Device Manager"

I could be wrong...

The most in depth quick tool for that is "CPU-Z".

Download the free version of SiSoft Sandra. Run that and you'll know everything about your system.
