Windows Inspection Tool Set (WiTS) is an open-source utility that consolidates all kinds of information about your system into one central location with an intuitive user interface. Thanks to WiTS, you won't have to dig around the innards of your file system - or try to remember what to type at the command line - in order to find the information you need. In addition to eliminating the hassle of dozens of built-in Windows tools, WiTS offers additional functionality, such as the ability to terminate TCP connections.
WiTS runs seamlessly in the background until you need it. When you do need it, the interface is snappy and responsive.

Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...

I think I need to download this like yesterday. I never, ever remember the commands I need especially when I am freaking out because I think my computer is broke!

Didn't work for me. Clicked the "OS and hardware" link following install, and after 2 or 3 minutes of frantic resource eating, the WiTS window said "Not responding" and had to be murdered in Task Manager.
