Obtaining System Specifications Through C++

Riddle me this - I need to auto-detect such things as the Processor speed/type, Ram amount, Video Card, Operating System and Version, and the software installed (using the add/remove programs list).

Any Ideas as to how to go about this? I am utterly lost.

Thanks!

you need the Windows Management Interface SDK though. you can DL it from MS, if you mean windows

Yeah, Sorry, we're talking Windows 2000, and XP.

GetSystemInfo() would be a good place to start.

Hey thanks alot guys, that's really helpful. I'll give this stuff a try, and let you know how it went...
