[out, optional] PSTR ServicePackString,
[in] ULONG ServicePackStringSize,
[out, optional] PULONG ServicePackStringUsed,
[out] PULONG ServicePackNumber,
[out, optional] PSTR BuildString,
[in] ULONG BuildStringSize,

[out] ServicePackNumber
Receives the service pack level of the target's operating system.
[out, optional] BuildString
Receives the string that identifies the build of the system. If BuildString is NULL, this information is not returned.
[in] BuildStringSize
Specifies the size, in characters, of the buffer that BuildString specifies. This size includes the space for the '\0' terminating character.
