    Do a search on the forums for helpdesk software and asset management - there are dozens of threads on the same thing.

    Sitehelpdesk here but it's not free.

    For asset tracking we simply use an access database.

    Re: Asset Management/Tracking

    Does anyone use any program for maintaining there equpiment which doesnt need to be installed on a network and if so what do you use. I was thinking of making up a access doument or something, but if there are any ideas please let me know I am hoping to have this running on a stand alone laptop.

    Spiceworks is quite cool - but watch out for the regular scanning for changes - it can be draining on the resources on the host machine! (just set it to what you think is best!)
