In the links you posted it talks about the MS key, and where it is

get
a Windows 8.1 product Key? If I did is it too located in the Bios.

If not where would I find it.

I assume that at some point I will need it and it will be easier to
find
it now that during a panic.

Google "keyfinder".

I'd suggest running the free Belarc Advisor. It does so much more and
seems less dangerous than some of the magic beans etc.

Question... Why not enable copy and paste from the results window?

I will look into that, not sure if I can do it with VBScript.

Thank you for that. Just read your response and Googled the Internets for
how to copy message from VBScript message box.

All I have to do is Ctrl+C while the message is in focus, then Ctrl+V onto
a notepad or other text-type target.

Thanks again for the help and the little app.
