Is there a way to find information about actual memory sticks on the mother board? I am looking for size, type, and speed (I already have total RAM)

yes, but you probably need to use DllCall for that. Unless you can find the information in Windows Registry.

The very basic information I would need is : how many sticks. any additional ram information would be gravy.

WINMSD.EXE might be able to tell you this... and even work well with AHK...

Quote:
You can also execute the WINMSDP.EXE program from the command line. If you run the utility, the following menu appears:
C:\winnt\system32>winmsdp.exe

/A Print All Settings
/O OsVer
/D Drives
/S Services
/R Drivers
/M Memory
/I Interrupt Resources
/Y Memory Resources
/P Port Resources
/U DMA Resources
/W Hardware
/E Environment
/N Network

Thanks randallf for WINMSD.EXE but it it from NT and A search fo C:\ did not find it on my Win XP sp2. but this lead me to look into msinfo32.exe. There is a few places where there seems to be hex format information that I cannot make sense of.

You can use WMI. For example, through WMI COM
Code:
WMI_Query("","Win32_PhysicalMemory")

Thanks Sean for the reply but I dont understand how to use the information. Read topic16632.htm [WMI COM] l I downloadded COM.ahk, IE.ahk, read the associated .txt files ran both ahk files tried to understand them by reading with txt editor. Could you provide a working example or what should I read?

I assume you know the concept of Standard Library in AHK. Put COM.ahk into Lib subfolder or just use #Include, then run the following code.

Code:
COM_Init()
WMI_Query("","Win32_PhysicalMemory")
; MsgBox, % "<Capacity>`n" . WMI_Query("","Win32_PhysicalMemory","Capacity")
COM_Term()
Return

WMI_Query(Namespace, Class, Property = "")
{
   psvc :=   COM_GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!" . Namespace)
   pset :=   COM_Invoke(psvc, "ExecQuery",  "SELECT * FROM " . Class)
   penm :=   COM_Invoke(pset, "_NewEnum")
   Loop, %   COM_Invoke(pset, "Count")
      If   COM_Enumerate(penm,pobj)=0
      {
         If  Not   Property
            MsgBox % COM_Invoke(pobj, "GetObjectText_")
         Else   sResult.=COM_Invoke(pobj, Property) . "`n"
         COM_Release(pobj)
      }
   COM_Release(penm)
   COM_Release(pset)
   COM_Release(psvc)
   Return   sResult
}

Who hoo!
I was not aware of the concept of Standard Library. Thank you for the the missing link.

Really? I am on XP SP2 and it's just start > run > winmsd

It's possible that i intentionally downloaded it at one point but I dont recall doing it, maybe it's a different version too
