Embodiments described herein relate to techniques, tools and processes for analyzing a computer system and determining the type and capabilities of hardware and software components resident on the computer system. This information can then be used for multiple different purposes. For example, the information may be used for (1) communicating an individual computer's ability to effectively operate a specific computer software and/or computer hardware product, (2) relaying the information to a technical support operation to allow a more rapid response, or (3) making a simple evaluation of the stand alone performance of a computer. These processes can be used for analyzing an individual computer's system inventory (computer hardware components and system software components) against a static set of manufacturer validated requirements for a hardware or software product.
