Purchase or check out from a library "XP in a Nutshell"
http://www.annoyances.org/exec/show/book_xpnut2
Very good book that describes all of XP commands and programs.

On your invoice, I should think. Otherwise, I know of no way of
knowing what software might be installed on any given computer other
than actually looking on the computer. You'll have to do that for yourself.

1. Open XP's "Help and Support" and click on "Use Tools to view your computer info....."
2. Click on "Get information about your computer".
3. Then click on "View the status of my system hardware and software"
and look under "System Software - Date Created".

Donald,

If your system is like mine [XP Pro SP2] it may not report in quite in the
way Carey says.
A simple check is to Open Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs and see what
you have got installed.

Alternatively try the following
1 Hold down the Windows key and press R. Type in
msinfo32
2 Click OK, wait a little, (up to 60 seconds on some machines) and you will
get System Information with access to the information about hardware and
software on your PC.

Good luck
