Where do I go to find out what version I have?

I don't think you can... best click the link on my website to the 3.13 and
then individually check your driver versions in Device Manager against the
ones on the installation page.

Either that or if you don't mind the download, just download and install the
3.13s

OK, looks like the XP 3.13s. The 3.13s include the latest driver, unless
stated below:

3.13s include 3.34 - you're up to date on this one!

Thats a matter of personal preference. I'd update to the 3.13s.

Well, in fact, I've updated to the beta ones too (Audio, IDE)... But I
haven't restarted Windows yet.

I just installed the 3.13s, and I am amazed at the
change!............either I am hallucinating, or everything seems
faster..........including boot time. Is this possible?

Thanks Ben!

It is possible, but I wouldn't have said that the new drivers would make a
noticeable difference is boot time.

Glad you're pleased.
