I'd suggest always using the Trim method (VBScript or PowerShell) when reading the Model from WMI. Some older Dell's I know (possibly other vendors) had a lot of empty spaces trailing the actual model name which totally hosed scripts unless you accounted for that.

Thanks for the update, A couple of requests: * Machine readable lists are great. I often put such things into excel. Right now this list would take a couple dozen copy/paste operations to get into excel. * I could use exact Model strings too. HP is bad at this, sometimes "HP" other times "Compaq" The Optiplex 380 also has some problems against the rest of dell machines. Thanks to those who sent me make/model strings. I was able to create a script to re-construct most Make and Models from the Dell Driver Catalog for my MDT Litetouch Driver import tool. http://keithga.wordpress.com/2014/08/21/dell-driver-pack-catalog/ Thanks! -k From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Cliff Hobbs Sent: Saturday, September 27, 2014 3:26 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [MDT-OSD] list of Makes/Models... Many thanks for posting the link Maik. I am updating the list as and when I discover missing models. Keith, if you or anyone else has any to add that aren't on the list feel free to ping them over and I'll update the list and credit the contributors ;-) Kind regards, Cliff From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Koster, Maik Sent: 09 Aug 2014 10:28 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [MDT-OSD] list of Makes/Models...

Can I persuade a Config Mgr Admin for a list of Computer Makes/Models as queried from the BIOS/Firmware? Hopefully a broad unique list of Makes and Models for current machines. Lenovo's, HP's, Dell's, more? I've been working on some Driver management solutions for an OS Deployment system(LTI & ZTI), but my hardware lab is quite limited right now, so it's hard to create a structured driver system without the correct make/models. (and of course because Lenovo... ComputerSystemProduct) gwmi -query "select Manufacturer,Model FROM Win32_ComputerSystem" gwmi -query "select Version FROM Win32_ComputerSystemProduct" Thanks in advance, [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information of Cameron and its Operating Divisions.
