    What's the best way to get the system spec for a new laptop?


    I've just bought a Lenovo Legion Y520 & have used speccy to get system info.

    There is another source of info that I've used** - it's digs very deep eg it lists WUs installed/missing and is really is many pages long

    Does anyone know the name of it please?


    **PS I have the name on my other laptop; but that's unusable at the moment courtesy of a Microsoft Community Directly so-called expert who trashed it with bad advice on a system restore in safe mode. I've got details on what I should do & will see to it soon.

    System Info for Windows also pulls that stuff. You can get that by entering msinfo32 in cmd.exe by using Windows Key and R key. You can also just use systeminfo in cmd.exe

    I think you might be referring to Belarc.
