System Info : View, copy and save information about your computer's hardware devices and kexts (drivers for Mac OS X) using this Java-based ool
System Info is a tiny and portable application you can use to learn some valuable information about your operating system, such as computer uptime, OS version, system and temporary folder, along with memory and page file. It's capable of generating reports.
Portability perks
There is no installation kit involved. Instead, you can copy the downloaded files anywhere on the hard drive or to a removable storage unit, in order to directly run the application on any computer without setup. It doesn't have software requirements, add new entries to the system registry, or create files on the disk without letting you know about it.
Examine and export system-related details
Once you double-click the .exe file, the tool brings up a message dialog on the screen. System information is automatically gathered at startup and revealed, so you can check out the current date and time, program name and location, along with the computer and user name.Moreover, System Info displays the Windows version and folder, system and temporary directories, RAM, memory load, size of page file, together with the screen work area, margins and resolution. It offers to export this data to a text document called "Sinfo", which is automatically saved in the same location as the program. The report also shows the computer uptime, which is calculated by taking into account the time of the snapshot.
Evaluation and conclusion
We haven't experienced any stability issues in our tests. As expected from such a compact application, it had minimal impact on the computer's performance, since it needed a low amount of CPU and RAM to work properly. No error dialogs popped up and it didn't freeze or crash.Although it doesn't provide in-depth information about the computer, System Info is small-sized and speedy. It's geared toward those looking to find general details related to Windows.
