Need Relevance for Video Controller - windows

I’m looking to collect info about the video drivers along with

  • Device instance id
  • Driver Version
  • Driver Date

I see an item under Hardware Information (Windows) which has Video Controller - Windows but do not know how to find the relevance which is being used to determine this. I’m pretty sure it is a WMI call and am wondering the starting point.

I’ve figured out how to find all the device instance ids with this relevance below:

(string values of (selects “InstanceNameList from MSWmi_PnPInstanceNames” of wmi “root\wmi”) as lowercase)

I’ve looked through scriptomatic and can’t seem to find the right namespace, I’m guessing the relevance for that code would be a good starting point. Anyone know how to find it?

Hey ktm,

You can look at the “details” tab to see the relevance for the properties…

I think this is what you want:

q: (string value of property “Name” of it, time value of property “DriverDate” of it, string value of property “DriverVersion” of it,string value of property “DeviceID” of it,string value of property “PNPDeviceID” of it) of select objects “Name, DriverDate, DriverVersion,DeviceID,PNPDeviceID from Win32_VideoController” of wmi
A: Mobile Intel® 45 Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1), ( Tue, 05 May 2009 16:00:00 -0800 ), 8.15.10.1749, VideoController1, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2A42&SUBSYS_024F1028&REV_07\3&2ACF1E9&0&10
