How to get hard disk serials?
i used this code to get hard disk serials:
private void getSeriaHardDisk()
{
string lsSerial="";
ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT * FROM Win32_PhysicalMedia");
int i = 0;
foreach(ManagementObject wmi_HD in searcher.Get())
{
if (wmi_HD["SerialNumber"] == null)
lsSerial = "None";
else
lsSerial = wmi_HD["SerialNumber"].ToString().Trim();
++i;
}
}
it runs normally on winxp sp1 but error on winxp sp2 and window2000.can you help me?
I ran this code on Windows XP Pro SP2 just fine. The question is, where are you executing this code? Are you executing it from a network share or in another local other than from off of one of your local disk drives? I don't know this for sure, but I would imagine these classes need reflection permission and/or unmanaged code execution permission. If you are executing from a network share or something of that nature, you are sure to have your permission set limited.
What exception are you getting?
