Reading Computer server hardware?

Hello this is a long short. But is it possible to ready cpu, memory, hardrive information from a Server motherboard without having to install somesoftware on the computer to transmit to the arduino? Thank you for any help or advice.

Do you want to implement telepathy between computers? :wink:

Oh boy would you? That would be awesome. Okay i know it's not possible but what would be the best way to monitor a server motherboard using arduino?

Google "IPMI"

Eventually you can connect the Arduino as a maintenance console to the server. Details depend on the firmware running on your server board.

IPMI seems to be usable only when the server OS is down?
