Perhaps I am just not seeing it but I am trying to pull Model number/Product ID from the BIOS of my all my desktops. When I go to the 'report' of any of my pc's I can only see the following information derived from the BIOS
Name:
Manufacturer:
Version:
Serial number:
When I choose config and look at the BIOS I see the underlying information:
Caption:
BIOSVersion:
BiosCharacteristics:
CurrentLanguage:
InstallableLanguages:
Manufacturer:
PrimaryBIOS:
ReleaseDate:
SerialNumber:
SMBIOSBIOSVersion:
SMBIOSMajorVersion:
SMBIOSPresent:
SMBIOSMinorVersion:
Status:
Version:
Date:

Can someone lend me a hand pulling the model/product ID info. from the BIOS please?

Thanks much!

Lansweeper gets the information from WMI, where wmi get's the information is vendor specific.

For HP computers, the information you need might be inside the "serialnumber" field in "tblbios"

let me clarify a bit more:
If I need to warranty a piece of equipment I am asked to provide the model information. The company (example: HP) might call that information in the BIOS the "SKU"
Does this help?

On most of my workstations/servers I do see the model information located there but on some I do not which is why I was/am wondering if it is pulling from the BIOS. I'd think that if it was pulling from the BIOS then all the workstations and server would have the model info. listed under system product.
thanks again for your assistance!

No I unfortunately do not.
I want to be able to search for a pc, then drill into the BIOS information and get the Model name/number of that pc.

many thanks!
