Network Inventory Scan - Other Tools/Utilities

So not being in a business environment, all of the tools/utilities that I came to live by, I don't have now I am at a loss. One in particular is an inventory scanner that displayed the following information. I am finding a number of of them on the internet with
X day Trials or Limited Function. Is there a truly free scanner out there someone has come across?

There are vbscripts out there that would accomplish this. There is also OCS Inventory NG | Home, Spiceworks and some others.

Thank You, I am looking more into it now.

EDIT:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/vbscript/AssetScan.aspx - I found this one however it is not creating the actual file so I will look into it more. I believe is has to do with Win 7.

I didn't realize that vb scripts are readily available.

We use Newt where I work. Network Inventory, Hardware Inventory & Network Audits with NEWT Professional
It only picks up super detailed info for Windows machines, but i've seen it get a good bit of info from printers and a few switches etc. I think it can scan up to 25 devices for free, Works out really well and allows you to export to an excel doc if you need it. Since I work for an MSP, that's how we tell our clients what needs to be upgraded and in what order.

You could also try open-audit
Open-AudIT - The network inventory, audit, documentation and management tool.

Thanks for the info, I am currently working on my company's IA audit plan and they don't have one currently. Was trying to figure out how to do an initial inventory audit so this will come in handy.
