This was discussed some time ago.....
This part of the registry is created every time you reboot the PC. It is 
a fixed value. It can be altered by an administrator, but, will revert 
after a reboot.

You can then HASH this and use the hash as a unique string for your system.

AnsiString SystemBiosVersion()
{
    HKEY hKey;
    DWORD keyType   = 0;
    DWORD retValue  = 0;
    DWORD keyLength = 0;
    char *t = new char [MAX_PATH];
    char *CV = new char [256];
    AnsiString A="Unknown Bios";

    strcpy(CV, "Hardware\\Description\\System");
    retValue = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, CV, NULL, KEY_READ, &hKey);
    if (retValue != ERROR_SUCCESS)
    {
      delete CV;
      delete t;
      return A;
    }
    RegQueryValueEx(hKey, "SystemBiosVersion", NULL, &keyType, NULL, 
&keyLength);
    retValue = RegQueryValueEx(hKey, "SystemBiosVersion", NULL, 
&keyType, (UCHAR *)t, &keyLength);
    RegCloseKey(hKey);

    if (retValue != ERROR_SUCCESS)
    {
       delete CV;
       delete t;
       return A;
    }
    A = t;
    delete CV;
    delete t;
    return A;
}
