How do I obtain the serial number of the CPU in a PC?
Run the WMIC Command You'll see the computer's serial number displayed beneath the text “SerialNumber”. This command uses the Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) tool to pull the system's serial number from its BIOS.
Every processor manufactured will have a unique identifier called ATPO (serial number) that is unique to that processor only.
These are printed in human readable format and located on the outside edges of the processor. You can use the partial serial number along with the batch number (FPO) to check the warranty status of Intel Processor.
Open Start. Search for PowerShell, right-click the top result, and select the Run as administrator option. Type the following command to find out the computer serial number and press Enter: wmic bios get SerialNumber.
I have the ultimate answer for this without any external libraries. Simply type this:
wmic bios get serialnumber
This will give you the Serial Number on the PCs chassis ;) (found in microsoft's knowledge base)
