guinness 1,518 Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) What VirtualMachine are you using? This might help you in your quest in finding the answer >> http://www.codeproject.com/KB/system/VmDetect.aspxEdit: Seems UEZ & water have more appropriate answers.

UEZ 1,273 Posted August 14, 2011 You can use WMI and check for Manufacturer in Win32_BIOS or Vendor from Win32_ComputerSystemProduct. Both values are on my vm: VMware, Inc. and VMware Virtual Platform Br, UEZ Please don't send me any personal message and ask for support! I will not reply!

guinness 1,518 Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) Try this, idea came from UEZ & water >> I've tested on VirtualBox & it worked, so you might have to tweak the SRE.

StungStang 1 Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) I see that link: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/system/VmDetect.aspx This code is obsolete, dont work now MsgBox(64, "_IsVirtualMachine()", _IsVirtualMachine()) Func _IsVirtualMachine() ; Returns 1 or 0. Local $oWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:\\localhost\root\cimv2") Local $oColItems = $oWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * From Win32_ComputerSystemProduct", "WQL", 0x30) If IsObj($oColItems) Then For $oObjectItem In $oColItems If StringRegExp($oObjectItem.Name, '(?i)VirtualBox|VMWare|Virtual PC') Then Return 1 EndIf Next EndIf Return SetError(1, 0, 0) EndFunc ;==>_IsVirtualMachine This work well =)...im not a SRE guru but it seems to work.
