Not exactly sure of how to determine the PID for my HP notebook PC..., and the PID for Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 (32-bit) operating system, IF there is one. I'd like a step by step report for determining the PID for my HP notebook
PC. I'd also like the same for my operating system:Windows Vista Home Premium. Any help here? I have an IT background if that helps. I've been out of work for several years, so don't hesitate to go into detail on anything. I enjoy technical details...,
it is a fault of mine.

A PID (in Windows at least) is the Product Identification number - it's a one-way hash created at the time of installation of the OS which conveys a certain limited amount of data about the machine and the OS.
The ONLY way to know the full PID on any machine or in any version of Windows is therefore to install it, and allow the machine to generate it.
There is no such thing as a PID for a machine, or for an OS - it only exists in combinations of the two.
