In Windows XP, how can I get a list of all my hardware components as a text file?

I'll be putting Linux on my old Lenovo T60p laptop and I would like to have a list of all of the hardware in it, so that if I need to manually hunt down drivers, I have all of the make and model information for all the parts in my computer. Is there a way in Windows XP to export this list directly to a text file?

"Download and run SIW - System Information for Windows

Under Hardware, expand Devices

Then go to File > Create Report File > TXT

For good measure, do the same with PCI

SIW is freeware and portable."
