Hi,
My operating system is a Windows XP Professional and I need to put these informantions(type of video and network cards) in a database. My problem is "how can i get these informations" using c++ functions ?

A good point to find hardware information is the registry:
HKLM\Hardware
HKLM\System

Video Card: DirectX and/or OpenGL function also may retrieve extended information about video cards. You should rather post such request into the Graphic Forum. And/or take a look at DX tutorials/samples.
