Hello Gurus!
I am trying to retrieve the serial number and vendor ID of the RAM modules
installed on Windows 2003/2008 servers. I KNOW this can be done because I
have seen 2 commercial software packages that get it. I also KNOW that
WMI
is not a good solution as testing has shown it is not all that accurate
compared to the other apps I mentioned. Unfortunately, neither of the
apps
will run under the 64-bit version of Windows PE which is the environment
we
do our inventory from so I will probably have to write my own. The
problem
is I am finding zero documentation. I do not believe that writing this is
a
slam dunk task and fully expect it may require some sort of driver lurking
in
kernel space to get me access to the memory controller or something so I
can
beat the info out of the memory modules. But really I don't know where to
start. Surely someone out there can point me in the right direction?
Please?
Thanks!
Bill
