I know I've seen this before, but I can't remember where. Does anyone know of a site that has a program to run that will tell you what components are installed in my computer? I would like to find out what graphics card I have installed in my computer without having to open it up. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!!

Test My Hardware 1.1 is a freeware that supposedly will provide detailed information on all hardwares installed on a system. The free diagnostic utility can be found at http://www.majorgeeks.com/Test_My_Hardware_d5094.html
If that one isn't what you need there are several other freewares and sharewares seen at http://www.majorgeeks.com/downloads9.html

After running dxdiag, I save the txt file showing that the manufacturer is unknown. I know it's an NVidia card, but I do not know which one it is. Here is a copy of the txt file's display

You can thank a123 for advice on using the dxdiag tool. The problem there is that it is often too general for what you were looking for. "Test My Hardware 1.2" specifically listed the Radeon X1300 used here.
