Using the Control Panel to Obtain the Current Version Information

Clicking on the Information icon near the bottom of the dialogue screen will display the HSS8 Windows NT 4
Software Driver information dialogue shown in Figure 3.

The Driver version is referring to the HSS8 Windows NT 4 Software Driver itself. It has the format X.Y.Z. A
change in X would indicate that the HSS8 Windows NT 4 Software Driver has an added feature. Y would mean
that a new software driver engine is used in the software driver. Z indicates any corrections to problems in the
HSS8 Windows NT 4 Software Driver.

The Engine version must be identical to the firmware version for all cards in the PC. Normally this would only
be different when the software driver version is checked after a firmware update and the software driver itself
has not been updated.
