Computer model

[sixtec]

Hello friends,

 

I have a query which shows me the models of pc's (SMS_G_System_COMPUTER_SYSTEM.model), so far all Dell computers, HP, IBM, I showed good model, but with the new Lenovo I get a number and not the model.

 

Using an external application (NEWT Professional) I realized that there is a field (System Version) which shows me the model (ThinkCentre A70) LENOVO computers.

 

That attribute can be the field?

 

Perhaps this program get this data differently?

 

This data is obtained by WMI?

 

thank you very much

Hi,

You are correct, lenovo uses the fileds in a little different way than the rest..

I have modified the builtin report here, to list the Lenovo serial number correctly: http://ccmexec.com/2010/04/lenovo-computers-and-serial-numbers-in-reports/

I haven't seen anything about retrieivng the model-name I normally use the modelnr and in reports for instance replace the model-nr with the model name to make it user friednly.

Regards,

Jörgen

Lenovo is storing the Model name in the Win32_ComputerSystemProduct class. Check this out.
