SIV by Ray Hinchliffe. 'System Information Viewer' is a general Windows utility for displaying lots of useful Windows, Network and hardware info - CPU info, PCI info, PCMCIA info, USB info SMBus info, SPD info, ACPI methods, Machine info, Hardware Sensors, Networked computers, Operating System Information and more. SIV is designed for Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Vista, XP, 2012, 2008, 2003, 2000 and NT4. Windows 95, 98 and Me are also supported.

SIV can also be used to control AIO devices, such as fans and LEDs. To do this, you need to specify the -AIOCTL command line qualifier. When -AIOCTL is specified, SIV will automatically do the EnhancedPowerManagementEnabled registry change and restart the USB device.

SIV (System Information Viewer) uses pcidevs.txt for the PCI devices, usbdevs.txt for the USB devices, and mondevs.txt for monitoring pcmdevs.txt PCMCIA device descriptions.
