Hi everybody.
I need a function (using API) that returns a list of current system hardware configuration (something like System Properties tab). I have some stuff to retrieve HD & Monitor info reading the registry, but what I really need is a list of everything in ONE API call (if exists):

- Processor (type & speed)
- Total Physical Memory
- HDs Drives
- CDs Drives
- Monitor (brand & features)
- OS (this item can be excluded)

I've tried reading HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG but I can't reach the desired results.
Thank you.
Note: I know there's a lot ActiveX Controls to do this, but I don't want to use them.
