How to do Target System Requirements test before VS 2010 Setup projects c#

Question

I have an application that needs to use Oracle 32bit version. I understand, I can add this as prerequisite and if it's not already installed on Target machine, it will be downloaded and installed its done.

Actually My Requirement is " I need to do system performance test like ram size, processor speed, Mouse Availability, keyboard Availability, printer Availability, system maximum screen resolutions support..etc."

Is there any possibility that i test all information before setup?

I'm new to Deploy a project could you please tell me where to start?

I am not sure how you can use these individual functions , but here are the functions to check different thing :

        //Get system RAM
        private double GetSystemRam()
        {
            var searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * From Win32_ComputerSystem");
            double total_Ram_Bytes = 0;
            foreach (ManagementObject Mobject in searcher.Get())
            {
                total_Ram_Bytes = (Convert.ToDouble(Mobject["TotalPhysicalMemory"]));
                Console.WriteLine("RAM Size in Giga Bytes: {0}", total_Ram_Bytes / 1073741824);

            }
            return total_Ram_Bytes;
        }


        //Get system processor speed
        private int GetprocessorSpeed()
        {
            var searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("select MaxClockSpeed from Win32_Processor");
            int processorSpeed = 0;
            foreach (var item in searcher.Get())
            {
                processorSpeed = Convert.ToInt32(item["MaxClockSpeed"]);
                Console.WriteLine("Processor Speed is(GHz):" + processorSpeed);
            }
            return processorSpeed;
        }


        //Get system maximum resolution
        private void GetMaxResolution()
        {
            using (var searcher = new System.Management.ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT * FROM CIM_VideoControllerResolution"))
            {
                var results = searcher.Get();
                UInt32 maxHResolution = 0;
                UInt32 maxVResolution = 0;

                foreach (var item in results)
                {
                    if ((UInt32)item["HorizontalResolution"] > maxHResolution)
                        maxHResolution = (UInt32)item["HorizontalResolution"];

                    if ((UInt32)item["VerticalResolution"] > maxVResolution)
                        maxVResolution = (UInt32)item["VerticalResolution"];
                }

                Console.WriteLine("Max Supported Resolution " + maxHResolution + "x" + maxVResolution);
            }
        }


        //Check for availability of keyboard 
        private bool IsKeyboardAvailable()
        {
            bool isKeyboardAvailable = false;
            var searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("select * from Win32_Keyboard");

            List<string> keyBoardName = new List<string>();
            foreach (var item in searcher.Get())
            {
                keyBoardName.Add(Convert.ToString(item["Name"]));
                Console.WriteLine("KeyBoard name is :" + item["Name"]);
                isKeyboardAvailable = true;
            }
            return isKeyboardAvailable;
        }


        //Check for availability of printer
        private bool IsPrinterAvailable()
        {
            bool isPrinterAvailable = false;
            var searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * from Win32_Printer");
            List<string> printerName = new List<string>();
            foreach (var item in searcher.Get())
            {
                printerName.Add(item["Name"].ToString().ToLower());
                Console.WriteLine("Printer name is :" + item["Name"]);
                isPrinterAvailable = true;
            }
            return isPrinterAvailable;
        }


        //Check for availability of mouse
        private bool IsMouseAvailable()
        {
            bool isMouseAvailable = false;
            var searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * from Win32_PointingDevice");
            List<string> mouseType = new List<string>();
            foreach (var item in searcher.Get())
            {
                mouseType.Add(item["Name"].ToString().ToLower());
                Console.WriteLine("Mouse type is :" + item["Name"]);
                isMouseAvailable = true;
            }
            return isMouseAvailable;
        }

NOTE: I am just use Console.WriteLine so you can see the values and also using LIST so if you want you can further use that items.
