If you want detail information about a device in Windows XP and Windows .NET, add a Details tab to Device Manager's Properties
dialog:
1. Control Panel / System / Advanced / Environment Variables / System variables / New.
2. Set the Variable name to DEVMGR_SHOW_DETAILS and the Variable value to 1.
Press OK, OK, and OK.
NOTE: You can set this environment variable using the registry, though it will require a restart to become effective:
1. Copy / Paste the following into a DEVMGR_SHOW_DETAILS.REG file:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment]
"DEVMGR_SHOW_DETAILS"="1"
2. Merge the DEVMGR_SHOW_DETAILS.REG file with the computer's registry.
3. Shutdown and restart Windows XP.
