how to read bios date and version?

[sharma_sudhir]

I am just wondering if anybody can find me a sample code to read BIOS date using C or C++.

Thanks a lot.

It's in the registry if that helps...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System

Yes you can

you will use outp() and inp().

outp(0x70,{put the bios address here 1 to 128});

read the value with

inp(0x71);
