Which hardware you use ?
If you have HP servers you can use free HP SIM

We use Microsot Configuration manager (not free)

I read some good reviews about Lansweeper free tool:

Try running WINMSD /? and look at the automated options in there. Save Report file, etc.

If you don't already have a good way to run this on multiple machines, look into PSEXEC.
