DtWinVer is a routine which provides a comprehensive method to determine which OS the program that calls it is running on. All methods it uses are fully documented on various articles on the MSDN CD. The routine provides the emulated OS aswell as the underlying OS. e.g. to a Dos program Windows 95 looks like MS-DOS 7.0.
