If you’re trying to troubleshoot a problem on your Windows computer or you’re looking for specific drivers or software for your computer, you need to know the model name of your computer. Here are a few ways you can check your Windows computer’s model name:

1. Check the documentation that came with your computer: The model name is usually printed on the computer case or listed in the documentation that came with your computer.

2. Check the System Information utility: The System Information utility on your computer provides information about your computer’s hardware and software. To open the System Information utility, press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box, type “msinfo32” and press Enter. In the System Information window, the model name should be listed under the System Model field.

3. Check the Device Manager: The Device Manager shows a list of all the hardware devices installed on your computer. To open the Device Manager, press the Windows key + X and select Device Manager from the menu. Expand the category for your computer, such as “System Devices” or “Computer”, and the model name should be listed.

4. Check the BIOS: The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) is a program stored on a chip on your computer’s motherboard that controls the way your computer boots up and communicates with hardware devices. To access the BIOS, start your computer and press the key specified on the screen to enter the BIOS setup program. The model name should be listed somewhere in the BIOS setup program.

5. Check the Windows Registry: The Windows Registry is a database that stores configuration information about your computer. To access the Registry Editor, press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box, type “regedit” and press Enter. Navigate to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System. The model name should be listed in the SystemManufacturer and SystemProductName fields.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
