Is there a command line tool for Windows XP to display system resources, like available memory usage, cpu, diskspace etc... Small and requires a non-install.

Best Regards,

Anders

  • By "non-install" do you mean something portable, or something which will already be included in a normal installation of Windows XP? – ThatGraemeGuy Jun 11 '10 at 08:55
  • I mean a single .exe file that can run out of the box on any standard Windows XP installation. Requiring no "installation process", but if there are internal available tools already in Windows, please let me know. – Anders Jun 11 '10 at 09:01

WMIC can be used to find pretty much anything you want provided you are prepared to do a bit of digging - for information similar to the examples you asked about:

wmic computersystem get DNSHostname, Domain, Manufacturer, Model, NumberofLogicalProcessors, NumberofProcessors, SystemType, TotalPhysicalMemory
wmic logicaldisk get Caption, FileSystem, FreeSpace, Size, VolumeName

SystemInfo will give you a good overall summary but with WMIC you can tune the queries to give you just the data you are interested in.

Or if you need more detailed informations, you can find the tools needed in the SysInternals Suite, take a look at Psinfo.exe -d and Pslist for example. You can also roll your own VBScript querying WMI information.
