Coming from the "Switched At Birth" department, Lockergnomie Jack Sanderson gives us the key to unlock a Windows utility. What kind of hardware do you have in that machine of yours? Do you even know? Are your peripherals always on their best behavior? Don't lie to me. It's time to take inventory. Select the 'Run' option in your Start Menu, and type: "HWINFO /UI" (without the quotes). Be sure you have that little '/UI' switch in there or this won't work. In a few seconds you should see a color-coded window listing drivers (etc.) and their location within the Windows Registry. It's another troubleshooting tool for ya. NOTE: this utility may not come with all versions of Windows.
