Exporting Processors

[Guest]

AD with all XP or WIN2K boxes (approx 1,500).
How do I export the processor speed (and last logged-on user - if possible)?
Thank you

I would think using WMI for this would be your best bet. You use it either in Hyena (Enterprise Edition) or in Exporter Pro. The Win32_Processor class seems to have the most information.

Hmmm, I bet you're right.
Now if you can just point me to instructions on what you mean, I will be on my way.
Thank you for the quick response.

Sure. In Hyena you can select computer(s), then right-click and choose WMI->Execute Query. Click the New button to create a new WMI Query, then enter in Win32_Processor in both the WMI Query Name box and the WMI Class box, then click OK.

You should now see all of the properties for this class in the 'Win32_Processor' Properties window. Select and add the fields you are interested in, then click Execute Query to run it.

I'm running it on about 10 boxes right now.
Will report back results.
Thank you for the instructions.

OK, this is real dumb.
I got the 'ProcessorID'. 'Processor Type', and 'Stepping'.

Being a non-geekish geek, I don't know what that means.

I am trying to sort all of the boxes on our next work by 'Processor' speed and starting replacing them - working from the bottom.

I will need the computer name and processor speed.
Thanks

Got it - I just clicked all the options on one box and got what I needed.

"_Server" and "CurrentClockSpeed".

Socrates was right.
