I have written Win32 api code which dumps the SMBIOS table into a string using the GetSystemFirmwareTable however I am unable to parse it for UEFI systems because according to the SMBIOS documentation the entry point is located in the EFI Configuration Table which I can't find anything about how to access in the MS documentation.
