Hi, Further tracing leads me to conclude that Win32.cc uses an old structure for calling GetVersionEx. MSDN now seem to use OSVERSIONINFOEX structues instead of OSVERSIONINFO and then bodge a cast. Their example http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sysinfo/bas e/getting_the_system_version.asp
Works correctly on both my machines (both XP Pro SP1..bang up to date..I think!!) I've hacked up my Win32.cc code to try and match the MS stuff but haven't got a make yet!! I'll carry on if no one has a bright idea?
