If you want to obtain a unique ID for licensing purposes, check for
methods for getting MAC address or HD *HARDWARE* serial
number - not the HD partition ID, because it can easily be changed.

If you want to learn more of how to get hardware HD serial No
Google for "diskid32.exe". There is a complete source code in MSC++.

The code can easily be trabsfered to BCB because it is API in general.

Best regards,
