Install Different Files for Different OS, Possible?
Question, I have drivers to install but want a different *.dll to install for a different OS or problems may occur. Basically, I have the code below, then copy files to the users computer but I only want to copy the XP driver files if the user has XP, the Win98SE files if the user has Win98SE, etc. Any help?

I have this;

; Windows Version (95, 98, ME, NT x.x, 2000, XP, 2003)

Thanks, or if anyone has an example program installing driver files specific to an operating system, let me know.

I mean it installs ALL files on WinXP, not just the XP ones, thanks.
