From Powershell you can just use....
([WMI]'').converttodatetime((Get-WmiObject -ComputerName "RemoteServerName" win32_OperatingSystem).installdate)
Something like:
systeminfo /s server.domain.com /u domain\username /p password | find /i "install date"
systeminfo /s server.domain.com /u domain\username /p password | find /i "install date"
