WMI is always good for retriving this sort of stuff.

Thanks for pointing out.
But currenlty I am thing i can first get the adaptor information and then can see if it is ethernet adaptor or not..
but how to find whether it' is ethernet adapter or wirless adaptor or any other..
Is there any way to get from this adaptor that it is 802.3 standard adaptor or
802.11 for wirless.
Thanks in advance.

Again, WMI and the Win32_NetworkAdapter class. You can get the configurations with the Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration class. Search for those two classes on MSDN.

Thanks,
Yes I have been working on this still it does not say media type..
I want to find out specific difference between ehternet adapter card and wirless ethernet card...

I am looking into currently DeviceIoControl..

Apparently "MediaType" is all you looked for. It's the AdapterType field in the Win32_NetworkAdapter class.

You're wasting your time.

It's amazing how people don't even take the time to do a little investigation 
It'd take a couple of minutes at most to find out what was needed even from my threadbare answer of 'WMI' :/

See the problem is AdapterType field is not showing me seperation of wirless card and ethernet network adatper card.
second thing is Media type into registry is only supported for XP OS it's not there even for vista also...
That's y still struggling in finding no. of ehternet network card adapter(this should not be wirless ethernet card or dialup card or any othercard..)
I want it should support 802.3 stadards..

Yes, it does. The possible values for AdapterType are (taken straight out of the documentation!):
"Ethernet 802.3"
"Token Ring 802.5"
"Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI)"
"Wide Area Network (WAN)"
"LocalTalk"
"Ethernet using DIX header format"
"ARCNET"
"ARCNET (878.2)"
"ATM"
"Wireless"
"Infrared Wireless"
"Bpc"
"CoWan"
"1394"
Now, if your network adapter does NOT put the correct adapter type into the WMI Provider, it's the fault of your cards manufacturer.

Medea type is only suported for xp and second thing adapter type does not give any seperation for wirless and ethernet network adapter card.
so i want only no. of ehternet network cards.

This depends on the Bluetooth Profiles your mobile exposes. My mobile (RAZR V3) and system (Toshiba Satellite with USB stick bluetooth) allow me to use my mobile for internet connections, copy files, sync with Outlook AND use my PC headset for phone-calls with my mobile (funny, but useless).

If I'm not mistaken 6600 means Nokia 6600. If so yes you can most certainly connect it. Go to http://www.nokia.com[^] and download the latest version of Nokia PC Suite. Install it and go to Connection Manager. See to that your Bluetooth is up and running in both ur system and your Mobile. If it is so you must be using any Bluetooth stack as Widcom etc...
If your mobile is listed then please go to Phone and Modem option...You must have a Bluetooth connection listed in the modems available other than your internal modem in the system(if you have any). Click on it and go to Diagonostics. Then give a query modem. if certain queries are returned with Success tag then you are fine(this may take considerable amount of time).
Assuming you are using Microsoft WindowsXP SP2............I suggest the follwing
Just go to Start->Settings->Network Connection and create a new connection wizard.
Select Connect to Internet->then create connection manually->Dial up->...hereafter you have to give your Service Provider specific details. please consult customer care.
Once the connection is set just double click it. Enter the user name and pasword provided by your service provider and there you go...Happy Surfing

To do that you'll have to lock it down to a single machine using the mobo and hard drive serials, which would first require running something on the target machine to retrive that info before burning the CD.

Unless you can find some single use cd's thats going to be very hard. To erase a CD you'd have to use a re-writeable CD and to stop it from being erased all the user would have to do is eject the disk.
It'd be very hard to pull this off without some serious investment and top notch workers. Even then some one would still get around it if they had the motivation and time :P

Autorun can be prevented by depressing and holding the Shift-Button. Whoever knows that can simply copy the CD.

Many people also have autorun disabled because it annoys them and they will decide how to use their computer *glares at focus stealing apps*

Hi,
I have been looking around at some new memory devices. Unfortunately my hardware knowledge of the memory coding is limited. I have found people using PC4200 and DDR2-800,... but I do not know how they relate to each other.
Does any know where to find info on how PCxxxx relates to DDRxxx?
thanks,
Rich
