The Win98 system info ActiveX control used to enumerate the PCI devices and configuration space (vendor id, etc), but this appears to have disappeared in later versions of windows, and it seemed pretty non-standard anyway. Your best bet is to peruse the MSDN Hardware SDK and pray that the enumeration interfaces are API-able, though they're probably low-level _stdcalls or of the ISomething variety and only going to work with C or ASM, and certainly wouldn't be documented for VB.

Next best thing would be a 3rd party COM object to do it - google!
