Script to Check Devices Without Drivers

This is a quick script that I wrote to identify if a remote computer has a device without a driver installed.

Option Explicit
Dim oWMI, sComputerName, colItems, oItem
sComputerName = ucase(InputBox ("Enter Computer Name", "Name", "."))
Set oWMI = GetObject ("winmgmts:\\" & sComputerName & "\root\cimv2")
Set colItems = oWMI.ExecQuery ("Select * from Win32_PnPEntity where status = 'error'")

For Each oItem In colItems
 WScript.Echo "Name: " & oItem.Name & "; status = " & oItem.status
Next
