I want to know, can I enumerate all hardwares or unknown hardwares using a web application in .Net / WMI etc. With windows application i am able to enumerate the hardwares but with ASP.Net application, i haven’t experienced.

I know its a task of Full Trust, but i just want to know, for curiosity. If its possible. since nothing is impossible with technology, within technological limits… I think there might exists some framework for the same.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Environment:
VS2010
C# 4.0
ASP.Net
WMI/framework you suggest…

In Short:

I am talking about enumerating hardwares in Windows Device Manager. Basically i am thinking to enumerate unknown h/w from device manager and search for its driver on the web, via an automated process.

    You can not enumerate hardware (or even access local files) from browser (assuming you want to use ASP.Net to render pages).

    So you only option is to create a tool that user will install locally and run with enough privilegies.
