I just need the VB script to be converted to Powerhsell. It's just a script that pull the Monitors info...i.e. Serial #, Manufacture, etc Code below: '[login to view URL] 'this code is based on the EEDID spec found at [login to view URL] 'and by my hacking around in the windows registry 'the code was tested on WINXP,WIN2K and WIN2K3 'it should work on WINME and WIN98SE 'It should work with multiple monitors, but that hasn't been tested either. '***************************************************************************************** ' '***************************************************************************************** 'It should be noted that this is not 100% reliable 'I have witnessed occasions where for one reason or another windows 'can't or doesn't read the EDID info at boot (example would be someone 'booting with the monitor turned off) and so windows changes the active 'monitor to "Default_Monitor" 'Another reason for reliability problems is that there is no 'requirement in the EDID spec that a manufacture include the 'serial number in the EDID data AND only EDIDv1.2 and beyond 'have a requirement that the EDID contain a descriptive 'model name 'That being said, here goes.... '***************************************************************************************** ' '***************************************************************************************** 'Monitors are stored in HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\DISPLAY\ ' 'Unfortunately, not only monitors are stored here Video Chipsets and maybe some other stuff 'is also here. ' 'Monitors in "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\DISPLAY" are organized like this: ' HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\DISPLAY\<VESA_Monitor_ID>\<PNP_ID>\ 'Since not only monitors will be found under DISPLAY sub key you need to find out which 'devices are monitors. 'This can be deterimined by looking at the value "HardwareID" located 'at HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\DISPLAY\<VESA_Monitor_ID\<PNP_ID>\ 'If the device is a monitor then the "HardwareID" value will contain the data "Monitor\<VESA_Monitor_ID>" ' 'The Next difficulty is that all monitors are stored here not just the one curently plugged in. 'So, If you ever switched monitors the old one(s) will still be in the registry. 'You can tell which monitor(s) are active because they will have a sub-key named "Control" '***************************************************************************************** ' Option Explicit Dim WshShell Set WshShell = [login to view URL]("[login to view URL]") Dim strComputer, message Dim intMonitorCount Dim oRegistry, sBaseKey, sBaseKey2, sBaseKey3, skey, skey2, skey3 Dim sValue dim i, iRC, iRC2, iRC3 Dim arSubKeys, arSubKeys2, arSubKeys3, arrintEDID Dim strRawEDID Dim ByteValue, strSerFind, strMdlFind Dim intSerFoundAt, intMdlFoundAt, findit Dim tmp, tmpser, tmpmdl, tmpctr Dim batch, bHeader batch = False If [login to view URL] = 1 Then strComputer = [login to view URL](0) batch = True Else strComputer = [login to view URL]("%COMPUTERNAME%") strComputer = InputBox("Check Monitor info for what PC","PC Name?",strComputer) End If If strcomputer = "" Then [login to view URL] strComputer = UCase(strComputer) If batch Then Dim fso,logfile, appendout logfile = [login to view URL]("%userprofile%") & "\desktop\[login to view URL]" 'setup Log Const ForAppend = 8 Set fso = CreateObject("[login to view URL]") If Not [login to view URL](logfile) Then bHeader = True set appendout = [login to view URL](logfile, ForAppend, True) If bHeader Then [login to view URL] "Computer,Model,Serial #,Vendor ID,Manufacture Date,Messages" End If End If Dim strarrRawEDID() intMonitorCount=0 Const HKLM = &H80000002 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE 'get a handle to the WMI registry object On Error Resume Next Set oRegistry = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\" & strComputer & "/root/default:StdRegProv") If Err <> 0 Then I
