By installing Windows, this Variable is changed.

@s7shanbe btw are you trying to create a protection system?

Create a file named motherboard_serial in your C:\Program Files\Neobook or VisualNEO\Functions folder

and paste the below code. After that you can get the motherboard serial by calling the function i.e. Call "motherboard_serial" "[serial]"

{NeoBook Function}
Version=5.80
Language=VBScript
Comment=Motherboard sn
Param=[%1]|Text|Var to get motherboard sn (enclosed in square braces)
{End}

Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\cimv2")
Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_BaseBoard")
For Each objItem in colItems
publication.nbSetVar "[%1]", objItem.SerialNumber
exit for
Next

May I know why it didn't work?

Did it give you any error?

Did it return invalid/blank data?

@neodude

Variables/Data is Blank ... function dont get motherboard serial

Try this one. It calculates a UUID from Mac Address of Network Adapter.

Mac Address is hard coded in the device & remains same after Windows re-install.

@neodude

This is great.

If the network card driver is not installed, does this Plugin still work?

#13 · April 6, 2019, 12:48 pm

@s7shanbe Not having network card driver is like having a broken computer.

The function may return a non unique UUID which will be same for all computers that lack card driver.

For example: 0000-0000-A427-I9081-0000-0000

To combat this scenario, you should take both HardDrive ID and Mac UUID. If hard drive id changes due to Windows re-install, you still have a unique Mac UUID.

Only in very rare case, a person would re-install Windows and corrupt his network driver.

Tank you.

hi

@neodude my dear friend

UUID does not work on all systems!

Please help me to get a fixed code from the system.

#16 · February 2, 2021, 2:34 am

Hello

@neodude

when I execute

Call "motherboard_serial" "serial"

I get "Default string" in serial Var

Why I don't get motherboard serial? ,What is wrong in that Function?

NeoToolBox is a plugin with some very interesting functions for getting system info.

i.e.
cbGetComputerName
cbGetWindowsInstallDate
cbGetMacAddress
cbGetCpuManufacturer
cbGetCpuID
cbGetCpuSpeed
cbGetHDManufacturerID
cbGetMainBoardManufacturer
cbGetMainBoardID
cbGetMainBoardType
