Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Verify/Repair disk permissions and reboot. See if that works.

Do you have the app 'System Profiler' on your machine?

It would also be in Applications / Utilities.

If you have deleted that, there's why nothing happens when you click on 'More Info' as that is the app 'More Info' opens.

If you have gone about deleting miscellaneous apps such as Disk Utility and System Profiler from your Mac, amongst who knows whatever other apps you may need, it could well be time to reinstall the OS.
