QUESTION

How to find out the installed IXXAT VCI driver version?

 

ANSWER

In the Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\HMS\Ixxat VCIwin_expl_version.PNG

Open the text file version.txt

In there, you'll find the VCI driver version, in this example it is V4.0.1133.0.

Please note that this version number incorporates the whole VCI driver package, whereas the versions found elsewhere in Windows (denoted "Driver") mean the VCI kernel version.  Both must not be confused.
