Features:
Cool transparent window
Close button with rollover effect
Working buttons (opens sysdm.cpl and windows update)
And of course system information, except for the Macintosh HD
Doesn't require DesktopX to be installed.

Enjoy!
If you could you need to have the processor information text wrap (see below) other than that it is real nice I was hoping for a hud version.
What I need to run it and how pls....

Not sure if it was just intended to show "Macintosh HD", but if you want to get the startup disk name:
char sysdir[MAX_PATH];
GetSystemDirectory(sysdir, MAX_PATH);
sysdir[3] = 0; // trim to first three letters, e.g. "C:"
char startup_disk[100];
GetVolumeInformation (sysdir, startup_disk, 100, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, 0);
And there you should get the startup disk.

Will this work under DesktopX?

Mmm... probably not... is C code. Is there some way to call .dll / Windows API from DesktopX?
Edit
I just checked Stardock's developer page:

I guess I should write an SDPlugin for this, but I dunno how to test it with your applet.
