Answer Wiki:
If you are able to login remotely then you might try WinAudit "PC audit and inventory of software, licenses, security configuration, hardware, network settings..." :

Not installation required if its on a VLAN cause you actually need to run it on the desktop
You might have to sift through the vast amount of data, but all details will be provided.
Use this tool also a very useful tool simply enter the IP address of the remote computer:

Some basic information could be obtained with the Windows SystemInfo utility, and with Sysinternals’ PsInfo.
However, I think you could get much more information via WMI, but you would need to write a vbs or powershell script (I suppose there are examples on the web).
Take a look at this:
WMI Tasks: Computer Hardware.
Spiceworks (mentioned above) is a free monitoring/inventory/help-desk tool that gives a great deal of information of the monitored machines, and for windows machines it gets that info using WMI .
You could install this free program remotely, it supplies a great deal about the system.
