What version # do you guys get when using these? When I d/led them from the net and installed with the installer I got something dated from back in OCT 2003 but when I did it manually I got 5.12.1.443 and dated 2/23/2004.

Any ideas?

I never install them using the setup.exe, I always run CTZAPXX.exe from the Drivers folder and update them manually, choosing to overwrite the old shared driver files. My driver version is showing 5.12.1.443, dated 2/23/2004.
