[dmidecode] dmidecode on Windows - different results for different users?

[Tomasz Chmielewski]

I compiled dmidecode on Windows (with Cygwin).

Unfortunately, it gives me different results - whether I run it as a 
SYSTEM user or as a domain Administrator user.

For example, when start as a domain Administrator, it gives me:

prompt> dmidecode.exe --string system-product-name
SCENIC W300/W600

When started as a SYSTEM user, it outputs:

prompt> dmidecode.exe --string system-product-name
D1567


I made a diff of full outputs of dmidecode started by two different 
users, and there are plenty of differences - why? Below, a full diff of 
dmidecode output when started by a domain Administrator and by a SYSTEM 
user:
