hwinfo can write almost anywhere, we used it from Ubuntu to track the systems we refurb.
It can also output to different formats, (html, xml...)

We are going to be receiving 16 pallets of

for software that does not have to be installed, does not require
an OS

can import into an Excel spreadsheet. Has anyone ever used this
program, or
can you suggest an alternative?

We need to run a basic BIOS boot test, check the screen to make
sure it is
not cracked or gouged, etc.
I also want to collect system info such as Manufacturer of the
laptop, the
model number, the serial number, Processor type and speed,
installed memory,
and if it has any goodies installed like webcam or wireless.
Preferably the program can be run from a USB stick, and will write
the
system info back to the same stick. Then I can import the system
info into
a spreadsheet.
I don't believe there is anything "off the shelf". I
am inclined to
say
use the "Hwinfo" tool on the Ultimate Boot CD but I don't know if it
will write to a USB stick...
