Each user must know the laptop model they use, without this information about their portable PC, finding the necessary drivers or components can become much more difficult.
On HP laptops, a sticker or sticker with their series is located next to the keyboard or screen, but this data may not be enough to fully understand its model.
For example, Hewlett-Packard has released more than a hundred devices in the G62 series to the desktop PC market over a long period of time.

Hello.
In some cases, it may be necessary to know the exact laptop model, and not just the ASUS or ACER manufacturer, for example. Many users are at a loss with such a question and cannot always accurately determine what is required.
In this article I want to focus on the easiest and fastest ways to determine the laptop model that will be relevant regardless of which manufacturer your laptop is (ASUS, Acer, HP, Lenovo, Dell, Samsung, etc. - relevant for everyone) .
Let's consider several ways.
1) Documents upon purchase, passport for the device
This is an easy and quick way to find out all the information about your device, but there is one big "BUT" ...
In general, I am opposed to determining any characteristics of a computer (laptop) according to those “pieces of paper” that you received in the store with it. The fact is that sellers often confuse and can give you papers for another device from the same model range, For example. In general, where there is a human factor, an error can always creep in ...
In my opinion, there are even simpler and faster ways to determine the laptop model without any papers. About them below...
2) Stickers on the body of the device (on the side, on the back, on the battery)
The vast majority of laptops have stickers with various information about software, device characteristics and other information. Not always, but often, among this information there is also a device model (see Fig. 1).
Rice. 1. The sticker on the device case is Acer Aspire 5735-4774.
By the way, the sticker may not always be in a visible place: often it is on the back of the laptop, on the side, on battery. This search option is very relevant when the laptop does not turn on (for example), and you need to determine its model.
3) How to view device model in BIOS
In the BIOS, in general, many points can be clarified or adjusted. The laptop model is no exception. To enter the BIOS, you need to press the function key after turning on the device, usually: F2 or DEL.
How to enter the BIOS on a laptop or computer:
Rice. 2. Laptop model in BIOS.
After you enter the BIOS, just pay attention to the line " Product name"(Main section - i.e. main or main). Most often, after entering the BIOS, you don’t even need to go to any additional tabs ...
4) Through the command line
If Windows is installed on the laptop and it boots, then you can find out the model using the usual command line. To do this, enter the following command in it: wmic csproduct get name , then press Enter.
Rice. 3. Command line - laptop model Inspiron 3542.
5) Via dxdiag and msinfo32 on Windows
Another simple way to find out the laptop model without resorting to any special. software is to use the system utilities dxdiag or msinfo32.
The algorithm of work is as follows:
1. Press the Win + R buttons and enter the dxdiag command (or msinfo32), then the Enter key (example in Fig. 4).
It probably doesn't make much sense to dwell on each. As an example, I will give a screenshot from the popular AIDA64 program (see Fig. 7).
This is where I end the article. I think the proposed methods are more than enough 🙂 Good Luck!
The question of how to find out the model of an HP laptop arises from a user who needs to get technical support or service remotely. The support service, as a rule, asks to name not only the manufacturer, but also a specific model. Also, the information is important when downloading and installing some drivers and utilities. Let's talk more about how to find out the device model.
The official HP website contains a Knowledge Base section that describes various ways to find out the laptop model. Here are the most common ones:
You can find out the laptop model by looking at the documents that came with the computer. The warranty card, which is filled out by the seller, must contain detailed information about the product.
As a rule, a sales receipt is attached to the warranty card, which may also indicate the model. Similar information is also in the instruction manual.
You can determine the model number by carefully examining the device itself. Many sellers stick information under the keyboard. A small sticker with a description of the model and its components helps the buyer to make a choice.
The model is listed in the System Information section of the BIOS. To enter the BIOS, the manufacturer recommends turning on the computer and pressing the power button, followed by Esc. You need to press until the launch menu opens.
Then press the F1 key or manually go to the System Information section. The first four lines will contain information about the model, number and release date.
The manufacturer recommends running HP Support Assistant. If it is not installed during the sale, go to the official website and download. In the program that opens, there will be a “My Devices” tab with a picture and detailed characteristics.
The program is launched by the key combination Esc and Fn. On Windows 10, System Information may not be installed by default, but it can be downloaded from the Windows Store.
You can download a utility from the Chrome Web Store called HP Chromebook or Chromebox, depending on your operating system model.
After downloading the utility, you need to run it. Then, in the "Launchers" section, click in turn the icon "All applications", and then "Recovery". A window will appear on the screen prompting you to identify the product. To do this, you must enter the code provided by the utility.
Knowing the serial number of the product, you can determine the model using the support site. To do this, go to the section "Manual warranty support" and enter the information that the system will ask for (country of residence, serial number, and so on). After processing it, the site will display information about the model.
You can also go to the official HP website and enter the serial number in the "Product Search" window. The site will show details of the model.
Information about the laptop can be viewed in Windows by launching the command line with the Win and R key combination. In the window that appears, you can enter a set of commands: cmd, then wmic csproduct get name.
Second way: in command line enter msconfig. A window appears with information about the system, computer model and manufacturer.
The third way: at the command line, enter dxdiag. The DirectX diagnostic tool will launch, which contains a section with information about the system and device model.
This is a free program that works on devices with various operating systems from Windows to Android and is designed to display the technical characteristics of the computer.
After downloading the program on the official website, you need to run it. It will show the brand of the laptop and all the details about its details (processor, motherboard, video card, etc.).
There are many options for how to look at a laptop model. Deciding which one to choose depends on the user and how confident they are in using their laptop.
To find out the exact brand of your laptop, you can use a dozen ways: from viewing the model on the laptop case to calling up device information through the command line. The methods below work on all versions of Windows.
If the box in which the new laptop was hidden when buying is still lying at home, then the question of how to determine the laptop model is resolved with one glance at the packaging. Here you can see the manufacturer's brand, model name and other useful information.
If the manufacturer does not specify specific models laptops on the packaging, look for this information in the warranty card or instruction manual. If many users immediately throw away the box, then the documents for the equipment can be found at home even a few years after the purchase.
If the documents could not be found, carefully examine the corpus laptop computer. For example, on devices from ASUS, a sticker with basic information is located directly under the keyboard, to the right of the touchpad. Sometimes on such stickers you can not only find the name, but also look specifications your laptop. I have ASUS laptop X550C, here is just such an informative sticker on the case.
If there are no entries under the cover that look like the name of the device, then try to carefully turn the laptop over and inspect its bottom. Here you can also find a small sticker on which the equipment model is indicated.
If all the stickers have been torn off for a long time or are worn out so that you cannot make out what is written there, remove the battery and look at the model on it or in the battery compartment itself. Slide the latches on the back panel (notebook types vary, so there may be only one latch) and carefully remove the battery. If the information you are looking for is not there, install the battery and snap it back.
How to find out the laptop model if there is no information on the case? The first way is to look at the model in the BIOS. The biggest problem here is getting into the BIOS itself. Usually, to enter, you need to press the F2 or Delete key when you turn on the laptop.
In the BIOS, you need to go to the tab with the name of the "Info" type. There, in the "Product name" field, the series and model of the laptop will be indicated.
If you missed the moment to enter the BIOS and have already loaded Windows, then here you can also quickly see the brand of equipment using the built-in tools.
The device model will be displayed on the command line. If the information received is not enough, use the application called "System Information".
Another one hundred percent valid way is to run the DirectX diagnostic tool and look at information about the laptop in it.
These methods work on any laptops running on Windows base. Sometimes device information can be seen in system properties ( right click on the icon "Computer" - "Properties"). But, for example, on a laptop with Windows 10, there is no such information in the system properties. But the BIOS or the DirectX diagnostic tool will not disappear anywhere, no matter how Windows version you have not set.
The answer to the question of how to find out the laptop model can be monitoring programs that analyze the system, giving out a detailed list of characteristics - from the name of the equipment to the temperature of individual components.
The best monitoring program is called AIDA64. In it, the information you need is located in the "DMI" section in the "System" item.
AIDA64 works free of charge only for 30 days, after which you need to purchase a license. If you want the best free computer monitoring program, download the HWMonitor utility.
Here, the brand and model are written at the top, just below the "Desktop" line. Instead of HWMonitor, you can use another free program- for example, Speccy. In general, there are many options, you just need to choose the method that suits you.
