This is more of a tidbit, albeit an important one, rather than a full article. However the vital information (listed above) is something you will want to access easily, especially if a Tech asks you for this which often happens when you system is being worked on. This information is accessed on Vista as well as Windows 7, and in the same manner. If you are interested in knowing your system vitals, or a Tech person asks you about your system, it is good to know where to find this quickly. Click Start, then right-click on the computer icon and left-click on Properties and you will see a screen similar to the one below.
Note: Once a service pack is released and your system has it installed, it will show up just under the Windows edition below. This information is valuable, especially if you install software that has recommended hardware specifications. This is where you will look.
If you want to know about the size of your hard drive, click on Start, Computer, and you will see the size and how much free space you have.
In the next article you will learn how to stylize your Windows 7 system.
Here´s to happy computing!
