Hi,

What are APIs can used to get information used to uniquely identify a PC
system?

Indeed the only thing I really want is to find a mechanism to generate a
global unique key to identiy my software installed across customers. The
installation package is same, when my client install it, I will write some
unique key to the database for later importing/exorting data to use.

Thanks a lot!

rarely changed device. MS is binding his product to the motherboards
