Go to a command prompt and execute the SET command. Verify that PCManufacturer and PCModel are in the list, and that they are set to actual values.

Ok Its Working Now How Do I Compare Them?IF %PCModel%==Dimension 2400 ECHO Using A Dellis that right?

If the string you are comparing has a space in it, you must surround it with quotes. IF %PCModel%=="Dimension 2400" ECHO "Using A Dell"

Robert Harvey: In that case you also need to surround the %PCModel% with quotes. Also the quotes for echo are unnecessary and get output as well. Echo is a shell-builtin and doesn't follow the rules for C programs.
