This is a suite of tools for hardware developers, engineers, programmers, system builders and the insatiably curious, that allows exploration of your PCI/AGP/PCI Express/CardBus/CompactPCI/PCI-X/PCI HotPlug/etc. hardware at the lowest level. Full source code is of course included, and is 100% freeware.

Some possible uses for these tools include the following:

 Fully Automating hardware recognition during Operating System installation via the -I option.
 Discovering what an "unknown device" is (both by manufacturer and model), so you can obtain drivers and support. A regularly updated database of over 19,000 entries lists virtually every known PCI device and manufacturer on the planet, even those that no longer exist.
 Examining your exact hardware configuration for curiosity or troubleshooting purposes (e.g. Latency, IRQ routing, AGP speed, resource conflicts and many more common problems can all be solved with these tools)
 Assisting with driver development and hardware design - examine your hardware 'live' as the OS/Driver sees it within Windows, and as the BIOS configures it within DOS via the -D option
 Exploring the source code for assistance with developing your own PCI code or hardware drivers
 Keeping up with modern hardware - with full PCI Express and multiple root-bus support via the -R option, PCI32 outperforms older tools tenfold.
 Auditing systems for hardware change: reports can be saved/printed/emailed/etc for reference and auditing purposes
 And much much more! Download and try it today!

PCI/PCI32 is different to most so-called "Diagnostic" programs, in that it totally bypasses Windows, Drivers, ACPI and the BIOS, and instead communicates directly with the actual hardware at the lowest possible level - unlike so-called diagnostic programs which merely report what the Windows API's and/or registry report, regardless of it's accuracy. PCI32 will show you what's REALLY going on, not just what Windows thinks is happening.

Note: PCI32 does NOT work with any 64-bit version of Windows. PCI32 runs under 32-bit Vista just fine, IF you do two things - run as an Administrator, AND switch off UAC.
