Even those of us who work around computers all day forget which model we have under the hood. Knowing what processor your computer is using can be essential when contemplating an upgrade, or when checking the minimum requirements of a new piece of software. To look-up your processor make, model and speed:

* Right-click on the My Computer icon on your desktop

* Select Properties…

* Select the General tab

You are then shown a list of valuable information about your computer: the version of Windows you are using, who Windows is registered to, and at the bottom, the specs of your Processor and RAM.
