get a string which is unique for each computer

[Winanjaya]

I donot know everything about asm but I believe that it is easy for asm to get a string which is unique for each computer (please correct me if I wrong, eg. processor s/n, mainboard s/n and other hardware info), this is used for software protection ... I would appreciated if someone could provide me something like DLL or codes for this so I can call it from my vb6 application..

many thanks in advance

There is a portion of the computer that contains some key information about the computer, however, I do not think you can access it in protected mode.

Tell me if you are interested.

Yes .. I really need it, could you please provide me something like DLL (I will call it from my VB6 application), eg. get the s/n mainboard or s/n processor, or the other unique hardware id.?

Your prompt reply would be greatly appreciated, many thanks

Best Regards
