Media Adapters Tab

You use the Media Adapters tab in the Computers (SP) application to view information about media adapters, such as sound and video cards, on a computer deployed in your organization.

The Media Adapters tab displays the following information about the selected computer:

• computer name

• computer description

• the site at which the computer is located

• role or function of the computer (The role is assigned to the computer by the discovery tool.)

The Media Adapters tab displays a Media Adapters table window with the following information about the media adapters installed on the selected computer:

• media adapter type

• manufacturer

• make/model

You can select a media adapter listed in the table window and expand the row to show the following details for the selected media adapter:

• media adapter type

• media adapter description

• serial number

• asset tag

• manufacturer

• make/model

• RAM size

• memory type

• bus type

• chipset

Data displayed on this tab varies depending on the discovery tool used to collect the data. Some data fields might be empty. An empty field indicates that the discovery tool did not collect the data or that administrators did not map the data for import into the database.

Data displayed in some fields is affected by parameters your administrator defines in administrative applications. Administrative applications determine how to display manufacturer names and make or model names for media adapters.

For information about a field, place the cursor in the field and press Alt+F1.
