How to manipulate WMI reults?

[markdmac]

I am working in VisualBasic.Net Express edition.

While I am excellent with VBScript code, my .Net skills are self taught and lacking the depth of understanding I need for some tasks.

I have managed to remotely be able to check Physical Memory using WMI in VB.Net, but that query returns a single response. Now I need to be able to count the number of processor cores and also see how many physical NICs are present and what their link speed is.

Can anyone point me to any samples or provide me with some direction to achieve my goal? The account running the executable will be a network admin that has rights to everything. The program I am writing will be checking prerequisites before installing an application and will then kick off some code to install Windows components.

Thank you.
Mark

Looks like I am in good shape. I downloaded this tool from MS to help me create the code I needed:

I hope that helps.
