I am using msc 7.0 and am trying to figure out how
to do a few strange things

1: Find out the CPU type of the system I am on.
  How do I do this with a C program.
  
  
2: Find out how much extended memory is available

   a: How do I find out the amount available.
   
   b: How do I find out the amount installed.
   
   
Thank you all in advance who provide usefull answers.

Send me a copy of the FAQ if you think that will help.



Karl.
