Default How do you

determine what type of hardware you have on the system. I remember there was a utility I could download that would give me full details of what hardware I have. I want to upgrade the ram in my desktop and my lappy.

The lappy has only 1 gig and I'd love to max it out.

The PC needs tons of love too. Thanks all.
