Use any windows tweaking program.
X setup is the best and most powerful utility but its not reccomended
for newbies.
Try system mechanic or use tweakui which is very simple and userfriendly.
Login as administrator and perform the tweaks.
Turn on the guest account or create users with limited rights and dont reveal the administrator password to anybody.

I think tweaking programs can only be used to change some software properties like Service Pack nos., Versions., etc but I dont think HDD capacity and Ram cannot be hidden be these tweaking Utils.

X-Setup Pro is a so-called "tweaker" program; it allows you to change settings that are normally hidden deeply in Windows fast and easily. There are many hidden settings in Windows as well as in a lot of other programs and normally you can't change them.
More than 1,700 settings

X-Setup Pro knows more than 1,700 of these settings and displays them in an easy to use interface, grouped by several aspects. Simply choose what you want to tweak, select the setting in question, make your change and hit the "Apply" button. It's that easy.
Virtual Paranoia

Even if you normally not consider changing hidden settings since you simply want to have your computer up and working, give X-Setup Pro a try.
