Interagoting the target machines hardware
Does IS help with interrogating the hardware of the target machine?
Or do I need to write a Custom Action to find that out? It is great to have a System Search for Software interrogating. It'd be great to have something similiar for hardware search to find out what the RAM, CPU, free disk, graphics card, etc...
Is there any pointers how to achieve this? Basically I need to find out this information and log it.
Thanks!

To see what Windows Installer has built in, perhaps see the "Hardware Properties" section of the MSI help topic "Property Reference"; InstallScript can help with some other information, about which see the GetSystemInfo, SYSINFO, SYSPROCESSORINFO, and other help topics.
