Making a report of loaded drivers and their Version Info

Hello again everyone,
Does anyone know how to go about retrieving the driver resource information
(date, version, etc), for all of the drivers loaded into the system, from a
user- mode application? I know the information is available in the Device
Manager, but this is for an XP Embedded target, and we want to display the
information ourselves.

Use EnumDeviceDrivers
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/perfmon/base/enumdevicedrivers.asp
then get the file name from GetDeviceDriverFileName then read the revision.

WMI can help, or a C app which will call ZwQuerySystemInformation
(undocumented).
