On all our servers in the basement, we do have bginfo installed, in order to quickly get certain information. Now as I was struggling with a big Service Pack roll out, I looked into making bginfo also display the OS architecture. But apparently it isn’t that easy … At least bginfo doesn’t provide it by default.
After (yet another hour in front of Google), I finally found what I was looking for. At first I didn’t limit the query on a specific CPU, but that turned out to be shitty (x32 being displayed twice, once for each CPU). But after limiting it to DeviceID=’CPU0′ it works like a charm 😉
