Get monitor and cpu serial numbers

The security best practices(and for 3 months ago the ISO27001 with us) forces IT departments to control the assets. So, what do we have in the hand as lazy admins to collect assets en the network, it depends!


  • Send 10-20 technicians to take inventory manually through the entire office, 1-2-3-4 AD Sites?
  • Use System Center, OK, that's great for serial numers of CPU's but less for monitors, or we can have independent reports for CPU and monitors. So, it's not enough for me.
  • Use this script I found, and find it great from: http://www.itsupportguides.com I don't know the owner of the site but it's a great script and I allow my self to share it.

The results is exactly what our Management expects, an Excel with serial numbers from CPU's and monitors, associated to the user. Really great and congratulations to the owner of the script!
