RE: [GD-Windows] os version

GetVersionEx().

Obligatory warning: You should ask yourself why you're looking for this =
information.  Logging the info to a file is fine.  Making assumptions =
based on the installed version of the OS is really bad, and will break =
later.  Remember how all those games that should have worked with =
Windows 2000 didn't, because people checked for (NT =3D=3D true) instead =
of just seeing if they could create their Direct3D devices?
