Is there any software that does not require a Linux distribution to already be installed?

Watch your screen when your system goes through its POST. Most BIOS' will list the cpu type and speed as well as the amount of ram your system has along with other useful info. If you want to have a longer look at what is printed on your screen by the BIOS hit the <Pause> key and once your ready to continue with the boot, hit <enter>.
