DXdiag utility shows wrong OS inforation in XPE

[Guest]

After running DxDaig, it queries Wrong OS name. It queries OS name as
"Microsoft windows XP Professional (5.1 Build 2600)" instead of "Windows XP
Embedded Verion 2002 service pack 2"

So how do we get the correct OS name.Wfrom where it fethes this info?

XPe is mostly XP Pro so from there, you'll get the same info. You should be
able to use the API GetVersionEx to test for a bit to see if you are on
embedded -vs- home/pro. Look for other threads in this newsgroup for
GetVersionEx.
