(help) how to find laptop info

hi guys i need help, iv got a good spec laptop here that im looking to sell in the near future, but i want to find out the exact specs of what processor its using, what graphics card it has in and so on, there must be a free program out there that will tell me everything about it, hope someone can help me here!

Cpuz may help. Is there not a service tag or model number you could look up?

well its a dell 17/1749, quality laptop it is, i5 processor, 500gb, 4gb ram, 1gb dedicated ati graphics card, thats the stuff i do know, but i would just like to check it all to make sure and for when i come to sell it i know exactly whats inside to put on my ad, downloading cpuz now ill check that out!

got the service tag but how do i find out info from it, tried googling but nowt come up!

dell website mate under support

cheers guys that cpuz was ok got most info i needed from that and the rest i got from the dell site once i entered the service tag, spot on chaps, just need to try and work out how much to sell it for now, what do you guys reckon, its still got 206 days warranty on it aswell was only bought at the back end of last year, yet i cant really find much info on it when i google the model number, although there is some refurbs on ebay going for £600!

Check completed listing on ebay as a starting point but the specification sounds fairly new so you may not get many hits.

There was two. One with same spec as yours but a faulty DVD drive and not accessories for £372 or one with i3 CPU, 3GB RAM, 320GB drive for £465

Belarc Advisor used to do what you want but ain't used it for years, hopefully still good though.

cheers mate, its got to be worth around the £500 mark then i would imagine, as its in pristine condition, as new this laptop must of been around £800 as theres rufurbs on ebay going for £599. im gunna advertise it on here later once i finish work see if anyone is interested, if not i'll chuck it on ebay in a few days!

Sorry to hijack the thread with another method lol.

Right click my computer and click properties. Tells you what you want to know.

Start >> run >> type dxdiag and press enter. Tells you more of what you want without the need for extra software.

See you got it up for sale mate. if I didn't just buy a t61 last month and not bbeen after an ipad 2 lol I would have had it.

cool but not as cool as aida! :banana:

About £500 sounds about right. I'm actually after another laptop myself but probably have to wait until may or june.
