I want to get SMBIOS DMI information, by using QBasic, C, C++ or any languages which can run in DOS.

I searched google but I can't find anything useful.
Who can help me solve this problem ? :D

get the linux kernel from http://www.kernel.org
you will find some rather nice example on how to do a dmi scan in /drivers/firmware/

Dear CP,
Thanks for your reply! I download the kernel source of Linux, but unfortunetly, i am not familiar with Linux kernel architecture.
Actually, I just wanna wirite a tool to read/write the DMI pool in BIOS.
so, do you have any source code like that?
many thanks!!
