Is there anyway using WMI/.Net to grab monitor information such as Manufacturer, Serial Number, Monitor Size etc.?
Using a script is an option as well, or can I quer
This post, combined with the answer below about the WMI management tool had my answer. Here is the code that returns your monitor resolutions.
try {
ManagementObjectSearcher searcher =
new ManagementObjectSearcher("root\\WMI",
"SELECT * FROM WmiMonitorBasicDisplayParams");
foreach (ManagementObject queryObj in searcher.Get()) {
Debug.WriteLine("-----------------------------------");
Debug.WriteLine("WmiMonitorBasicDisplayParams instance");
Debug.WriteLine("-----------------------------------");
Debug.WriteLine("Description: {0}", queryObj["SupportedDisplayFeatures"]);
}
} catch (ManagementException e) {
MessageBox.Show("An error occurred while querying for WMI data: " + e.Message);
}
In my case, I'm still stuck, because it is returning the "scaled down" resolution of each monitor. One of mine is a 4K display, being reported as 2560x1440.
