SYMPTOMS
When you save or print a Windows NT Diagnostics (WINMSD.EXE) report that includes Hardware information, there may be two or more lines for System BIOS Version. The first line usually contains correct information, however the rest of the System BIOS Version lines have erroneous information. For example:
