GetVbeVersion function

Targets: MS-DOS only


Graph Unit

Returns the version of VESA BIOS Implementation.

Declaration:
function GetVbeVersion: Word;
Remarks:
The Vbe version is a BCD value which specifies what level of the VBE standard is implemented in the software. The higher byte specifies the major version number. The lower byte specifies the minor version number. Note: The BCD value for VBE 2.0 is 0200h and the BCD value for VBE 1.2 is 0102h. In the past we have had some applications misinterpreting these BCD values. For example, BCD 0102h was interpreted as 1.02, which is incorrect.
