How to check the Processor Vendor and MHZ speed on Remote Computer
The following knowledgebase will explain the methods you can use to check the Processor Manufacturer and MHz speed of the processor on local and remote computer.
To check on local computer:
You can use the following methods:
- Connecting to Remote Registry Service
- Using a script
The first method is easy but includes a lot of efforts. You can navigate to the following location in registry after connecting to remote registry:
HKLM\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\CentralProcessor\0
The above registry key includes the following values in right pane:
ProcessorNameString REG_SZ Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU T2400 @ 1.83GHz
VendorIdentifier REG_SZ GenuineIntel
To check on a Remote Computer:
You can use the below script to check the Processor Vendor and MHz speed on a remote computer:
@echo off
Srvlist=C:\Temp\Srvlist.txt
Echo Computer Name, Processor Vendor Name, Processor Speed >> Result.csv
SET Proc_Vend=
SET Proc_speed=
For /F “Tokens=*” %%a In (%srvlist%) Do (
Set Comp_name=%%a
Set RegQry=”\\%%a\HKLM\HARDWRE\Description\system\CentralProcessor\0”
REG.exe Query %RegQry% > CheckCC.txt
Find /i "VendorIdentifier" < CheckCC.txt > StringCheck.txt
FOR /f “Tokens=3” %%b in (CheckCC.txt) DO SET Prov_Vend=%%b
Find /i “ProcessorNameString” < CheckCC.txt > StringCheck.txt
FOR /f “Tokens=3” %%b in (CheckCC.txt) DO SET Proc_speed=%%b
Echo %Comp_name, %Proc_Vend%, %Proc_Speed% >> Result.csv
)
The above script will check remote computer for two registry entries for Processor Vendor Name and Processor Speed and the results will be saved in a CSV format file.
