Usually shown near bottom of window if your right-click My Computer and
select Properties. I believe the text is drawn from one of the following
registry keys (assuming an Intel processor, in the second example):

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\Cen tralProcessor\0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\A CPI\GenuineIntel_-_x86_Family_15_Model_2\_0

5) If none of the built-in tools provide the information you want, you
can use these utilities to help determine the answer to your question:
