Greetings James-- There may be other methods, however; I usually use the ipconfig /all command from the command prompt. Go to Start -> Run. Type in cmd, then OK it. This will bring up a "DOS" window (not real DOS, but what MS calls a command window or command line interface). Type in "ipconfig /all" (without the quotes), hit "Enter", and a list of all available IP configuration information, including the network interface card's MAC address, will be displayed.
