Is there software to tell what kind of hardware I have so I can find drivers for it?

Maybe I'm just lazy, but I really don't want to open this computer up and look. I'd like to know the type of wireless network card I have, but CPU-Z doesn't tell me. I need drivers for my wireless network card so the Device Manager just files it under Other Devices -> Network Controller.

Solution 1:

You can use Device Manager to get the vendor and device IDs for the various PCI and USB devices on your system, and then a quick Google search will help you find the make and model.

Solution 2:

Start -> Control Panel -> System ICON -> Hardware -> Device Manager - Look under Network Adapters.
