    OK this is probably very easy. I'm not talking about finding out the processor type/clock speed programmatically, I just want to be able to look it up! I know it is possible to reboot and that would do the job but there must be an easier way. Isn't it? BTW my machine is W2K but a generic solution would be best :-)

      Right-click on "My Computer", click "Properties". It should be at the bottom of the first page. :)

        That was my first try. What I see is this:

        Computer:
        x86 family 6 Model 8 Stepping
        3
        AT/AT COMPATIBLE
        261.616 RAM

        but not a word about the clock speed :-( Is this perhaps not always available?

          Try Start/Run/ msinfo32.exe. This provides the Processor speed information in the System Summary. "My child was Inmate of the Month at Mohave County Jail" - Bumper Sticker in Bullhead City, AZ
