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.

HTH,

Paul A. Shippert
