Answer 6

Most computers have the company name and model on the front of the case.  However, if you had your computer made for you in a private store, then it doesn't have a company name, nor would it have a model number.  However, you can find out the names and other relevant information about the hardware inside the computer case by clicking on start, then right click on My Computer, left click on Properties.  Then click on the Hardware tab, followed by a left click on Device Manager.  You will then see a list of all your hardware with a plus sign next to each one.  If you click on the plus sign, it will expand the listing for the particular piece of hardware you clicked on and give you the information about the kind and type of hardware, including the manufacturer.

I hope this helps...
