You can obtain information on the
motherboard in a
computer running Microsoft Windows using
PowerShell by means of
the Get-Ciminstance cmdlet with the command
Get-Ciminstance Win32_Baseboard. E.g., the following example is
from a Microsoft Windows 10 system.
PS C:\> get-ciminstance win32_baseboard
Manufacturer : Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
Model :
Name : Base Board
SerialNumber :
SKU :
Product : GA-78LMT-S2P
PS C:\>The manufacturer, model number, serial number, SKU, and product number will be displayed if that information can be queried from the motherboard. Note: not all parameters will be available for every motherboard as shown above. For another system, the serial number is available.
PS C:\> get-ciminstance win32_baseboard
Manufacturer : Dell Inc.
Model :
Name : Base Board
SerialNumber : .7XCTZ12.CN7016346F0331.
SKU :
Product : 088DT1
PS C:\>You can restrict the displayed information to particular parameters by
piping the
output to select-object. E.g.:
PS C:\> get-ciminstance win32_baseboard | select-object manufacturer manufacturer ------------ Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. PS C:\> get-ciminstance win32_baseboard | select-ojbect manufacturer, product manufacturer product ------------ ------- Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. GA-78LMT-S2P PS C:\>
Another command line alternative to using PowerShell is to use WMIC to determine motherboard information.
