So I always wanted some quick basic info about a computer to be put during booting.
So I wrote in Turbo C++ simple program, but it is
A - slow
B - Inaccurate

1 CpuInfo v0.4
2   CPU: 80486   DOSBox              Sound: SB Pro A220 I5 D1 (Installed)
3   Clock: ~33 MHz                         General MIDI M330 I2 (Unknown)
4   RAM: 16 MB                             GUS A240 I7 D7 H7 M330 (Found)
5   HDD: 127.9 MB                          Unknown

Program makes quite big mistakes (on my Pentium 1 it is showing 80386.
I included the source, so maybe someone can rewrite it or change it?

Do you guys know any alternate program, that will provide those parameters?
