Check with System maker's Support, their on-line documentation and drivers, and their forums (if any) for known issues. Hi, References to Vista also apply to Windows 7. Some maker's have issued BIOS and other updates to help with battery problems. ============================================================ Do these to clear corruption and repair/replace damaged/missing system files.

Yes, I can do that in the BIOS and it saves it fine. For some reason any other utility for online checks (HP Support Advisor and HP Auto Identify) still report the invalid Serial number. My motherboard was replaced after having an issue but during bootup i get a loud beep followed by 'Invalid Chassis Serial Number'. I have looked across forums and they say to press F10 to get into BIOS then CTRL A to be able to enter the Serial Number. First my machine is HP Prodesk 600G1 Tower PC.

I have put together a robust HP Warrant Lookup PowerShell script. However, I cannot figure out how to get a HP system's product number in an automated process. So..

How can I get HP product number (not the serial number) via PowerShell? Although I would like to do with only built-in out-of-the-box Windows and PowerShell commands, I am open to other ideas. In the end, the ultimate goal is retrieve the product number in the most reliable and least invasive way possible (i.e. installing 3rd software).

Troubleshooting

Tried:

Get-WmiObject Win32_ComputerSystem Select-Object OEMStringArray

Result:

{ABS 70/71 79 7A 7B 7C, CMS v01.4A, HP_Mute_LED_0, www.hp.com}

Here are some methods that work for various computer models.

Method 1 : Registry

The HP product number is in the registry so can be retrieved in PowerShellHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINEHARDWAREDESCRIPTIONSystemBIOSitem SystemSKU.

More information and script can be found in the article :
How to: Find the HP Product Number of all your HP server using powershell.

Method 2 : rootwmi – MS_SystemInformation

Invalid Serial Number Hp Bios

Class MS_SystemInformation contains the product number in its member SystemSKU.
(Presumably it gets it from the registry as in the first method.)

For more info see Richard Siddaway's Blog.

Method 3 : Class Win32_BIOS

The following fragment finds the product number for some computer makes. Tested on Dell.

The Microsoft reference information is found in the article Win32_BIOS class.

This is tested on a HP Laptop. I think HP 'Product number' is called SystemSKUNumber in win32_computersystem WMI. Tested on my HP laptop.

Will result in:

Serial Number Idm

If anyone else comes across this question, be advised, the entirety of win32_computersystem doesn't appear to contain the product number for servers, specifically. I was unable to actually find the information via WMI, but it turns out I was actually given the product number AND serial numbers for a number of servers (the spreadsheet was horribly formatted, so the two fields just looked like one big string until my afternoon coffee kicked in).

Works on Windows 7 & Windows 10From another user that posted. @harrymc

or try

$Server can be directly replaced by a ComputerName. example..

Keep in mind if you are on a domain you may need to provide credentials by either using an invoke-command or -credential parameter.

or

if WinRm is not configured on client, you may experience issues.

the wmic bios get serialnumber command call the Win32_BIOS wmi class and get the value of the SerialNumber property, which retrieves the serial number of the BIOS Chip of your system.

RRUZRRUZ

run cmd

Enter wmic baseboard get product,version,serialnumber

Press the enter key. The result you see under serial number column is your motherboard serial number

if run from a command line (start-run should also do the trick) prints out on screen the Serial Number of the product,
(for example in a toshiba laptop it would print out the serial number of the laptop.
with this serial number you can then identify your laptop model if you need ,from the makers service website-usually.:):)

I had to do exactly that.:):)
