This thread isn't about "what's taking all my bandwith" It's specifically about all the currently active devices. (devices being hardware).
Is there something I can use to view all active devices? ...factory pc software or 3rd party

Thanks,
Harry
 
Hello... Control panel-device manager is your OS hardware report screen.
1) What "HARWARE bandwidth" are we talking about here?... there is always something slower than something else in our systems. B /

2) Hardware can sit idle in an OS... It takes an APP/software/Driver/Input/CALL to put them to use... and Over use... Or command Priority in the Processing Order/Power available.

Thank you for the reply:
"What is taking up my bandwith" is just an example of what this thread isn't about. People ask that question way too often.

I'm aware of device manager, but it doesn't have a activity function.

I just want something that will tell me when a piece of hardware is being used.

example: I'm on skype...i would like to see that my mic and camera are in use. (even though i'm well aware that they are being used)

Your grammar makes it next to impossible for me to understand you.
I'm very experienced in windows operating systems.

There is also nothing vague about the question. I want to know if there is some software that can show me what devices are being used at any given time.
