start/run and type in cmd...in command prompt type
ipconfig /all
host name is listed under windows ip configuration and
under ethernet adapter wireless network connection your mac address is listed as physical address..

Do you mean that your ISP required a particular MAC address so your router has to spoof the MAC address of your computer? If so, Start > Run and type
cmd
and hit enter, then type
ipconfig /all
and one of the items is the physical address of your network card.

Start>Accessories>System Tools>System Information
Open up Components>Network>Adapter
To the right, in the list, it'll show your MAC address.

On Windows drop to command prompt and run:
ipconfig /all
It is referred to as the physical address.

For your MAC address, just run "ifconfig -a"

For your hostname, simply run "hostname"
