MSystemInfo is freeware.

For registraton mail me to <michal.mtl@atlas.cz>.

Installation:
-------------

The zip file has subdirectories in it. You must use the pkunzip -d option
to restore this directory tree or you will have problems because the files
will not be in their proper subdirectories.

This is the subdirectory layout:

.\			     Info directory
.\cpl			     Control Panel Applet providing System information overview using this component
.\demos 		     Sample applications
.\help             help files
.\D5                 compiled units containing components and packages for installing for Delphi 5
.\D6                   compiled units containing components and packages for installing for Delphi 6


DELPHI 5/6: Info directory contains MSI_D5.dpk/MSI_D6.dpk which is a package source for
all components. Using Delphi, do a file/open, select *.dpk and browse to
the info directory. Select MSI_D5.dpk/MSI_D6.dpk and open it. Then click on the
Install button. You should see the MiTeC tab on the component gallery.

Be sure to uncheck 'Stop On Delphi Exception' option in Debugger Options|Language Exceptions.


Support:
--------

If you have some problem or suspicion something bad, send me e-mail to
<michal.mutl@atlas.cz> describe your problem and attach file generated
by TMSystemInfo.Report. If you cannot obtain this file add following info
to this message: OS platform and version
		 Delphi version
		 MSystemInfo version.
I will process all suggestions but reply only someones.


Known Problems:
---------------

There's problem with device evaluation under Win95 platform, because Microsoft doesn't
provide it in full range as is under other platforms.
Another problem is obtaining cache sizes for some older Intel and Cyrix CPUs. AMD seems to work good.
