MSD allows you to examine technical information about your computer
in two different formats. You can use the MSD interface or you can
create a report.
Detailed information about your computer`s model and processor,
memory, video adapter, version of MS-DOS, mouse, other adapters,
disk drives, LPT ports, COM ports IRQ status,
terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) programs and device drivers will
be provided.
Options

should be used if you are having problems starting MSD or if it is
not running properly.
/F[d:][path]filename - Provides prompts for you to enter your name,
company, address, country, phone number, and comments, and then
creates a complete MSD report to the file you specify.
/P[d:][path]filename - Creates a complete MSD report to the file
you specify, without prompting you for information.
/S[d:][path][filename] - Creates a summary MSD report in the file
