How to Check Computer Specifications?

How to Check Computer Specifications?

Do you know how to check computer specifications? If not, this article will help you. The specifications of any computer can usually be found in the main three operating systems used on computers. The RAM you've, what computer CPU you have or what graphics card you're loaded with are all details you should know.


To check computer specifications, simply follow some simple steps. The first way to check computer specifications is to go into the system tools of your operating system. Normally, Windows will show information on the top screen. To access it, press F8 and then select All Items. You'll see information on your computer such as RAM, CPU, hard drive space, and graphics card memory. It's also possible to see information for other installed software, network adapters, and so on.


If there's no detailed information for your computer specification, search for the model and make in the quotation marks. When the search returns results for the computer you want, the second way is to open the dialog box for the manufacturer of your processor. The manufacturer of the processor is often referred to as the architecture group. Look for the architectures supported by your operating system. On a Mac, the architecture group is Mac OS X and on a Windows system, it's known as Windows OS X.


The third way is to use a search engine such as Google. Enter the product name (model and architecture) and click the link. For example, if you have a Toshiba laptop with an Intel Pentium processor, you would search for the "Toshiba laptop with Intel Pentium." There's more detailed information if you want it, but at least you'll get some basic guidelines.


If you need more help, go to the manufacturers web sites and look up their specifications. For a computer to meet certain minimum standards set by Windows, certain memory, Ram, Video Memory and processor speed are necessary. On some older computers, the minimum spec requirements are different, so don't assume that your current system meets them. If your computer is not compatible with the specs windows provides, you may be able to upgrade to a Windows compliant system that will function as good as new.


To summarize, here are a few easy and simple steps for upgrading or adding new RAM, installing new hardware (or replacing existing hardware), upgrading to a newer processor speed (such as a dual-core processor) and adding new hard drive space. The computer specifications can be found on the manufactures web site for your specific model and make. Don't forget to add the details such as RAM and hard drive space. Then you can use your favorite search engine to find and compare prices and features between many vendors.


After you know the basic information, you'll have a much easier time choosing the exact parts you want and need. It can be overwhelming at times looking over computer specifications because the system information is so scattered. So don't worry, you'll soon get a visual picture of how your new hardware will affect your computer. The visual piece will make it easier to make an educated decision on the right components and upgrades. Once you've purchased your parts and upgrades, take time to install them and run the system information program to make sure everything is running smoothly.


Here's a little tip for those of you who are not familiar with the Windows operating system: when you start your computer or turn it on, it runs the diagnostics procedure. It checks various things including the processor specifications, installed software and device drivers. If anything is missing or faulty, it will report that. If you find errors in this report, look at the values in the Process System Information section and repair or replace any necessary entries. Doing this process regularly should improve the processor specifications even if the computer is still new.
