Parse the output of "dir" (using os.popen to call it) or learn how to
use the win32pdh module (part of the PyWin32 extensions, which are
included in your Python installation if you use ActivePython).

There are example uses of win32pdh here:
    <python-install-dir>\Lib\site-packages\win32\Lib\win32pdhquery.py
    <python-install-dir>\Lib\site-packages\win32\Lib\win32pdhutil.py

See MSDN for API details:

Cheers,
