Thanks for the tip NetWallah. Unfortunately I'm not having much luck with this example. I get a  Use of unintialized value $colDisks in concatenation (.) or string at line 27.error. I did get one of the examples to work so it's not all bad. I think I'll need to suck it up and study COM and/or Windows scripting stuff for a while to understand what WMI and SWbemServices are. Maybe then I'll have a clue.

If anyone reading this might have a tip for a good book on this, that would be good. I'm not a programmer(Yet. That's why I'm studying Perl) so I assume it would have to be VB, VBscript, or something basic like that. As opposed to .net?
