If you require additional device information that is not typically displayed in Device Manager, you can configure Device Manager to show detailed information.


To configure Device Manager to show details:

Click Start , click Run , type cmd.exe , and then click OK.
Type set DEVMGR_SHOW_DETAILS=1 , and then press ENTER.
Type start devmgmt.msc , and then press ENTER.

In Device Manager the properties for a device should now contain a Details tab that has further information about the device.
