GETSYSINFO Subroutine

 
Usage:
si = GETSYSINFO()
 
Description:
Returns information about the current system. The variable contains the following members: BIOSDate, BIOSVendor, BIOSVersion, SysFamily, SysManufacturer, SysProductName, SysSKU, SysVersion, SysUUID. TBSVER 6 adds two additional members: BIOSFeatures1, BIOSFeatures2. TBSVER 7 adds CPUCount. For each CPUCount an array (1 based) is provided as CPU[n] with the following members: ID, Cores, CoresEnabled, Threads, and Features. Note that the Core and Feature information may not be reported by the system; however the Threads member is valid if Cores is non-zero. The ID contains the contents of cpuid leaf 1 EAX (low) and EDX (high)values.
