This impressive freeware is easy to use and provides you with comprehensive information about your computer. AIDA32 doesn't install; just run its executable file to view a neatly designed interface with system categories presented in a tree view list.

You can view OS, Network, Software, and Display among its many options. Though most of this information can be found through standard Windows methods, it's nice to have it easily accessible in one place. AIDA32's best feature is its report wizard that lets you design a wide array of customized reports, including system summaries, hardware or software only listings, and benchmarking.

Also included are tools for CPU profiling, disk and network benchmarking, and monitor testing. No help file is included, but you can e-mail the publisher with questions. AIDA32 is recommended for any user who wants a detailed view of his or her system.
