Help with WinVer testing
A new and improved version of WinVer.nsh is coming in the next version of NSIS (2.42). It supports Windows Server 2008, fixes Windows XP x64 identification, resolves ambiguity of Windows 95 and NT4; and adds a couple more features. It's based on a patch by Andres.

I've also beefed up its tests so I don't have to waste my time testing on numerous virtual machines but quickly test it on my main machine. To do this, I've written a script that fakes each configuration I could get my hands on. If you're interested, you can read more about it in my blog.

My collection of Windows versions is extensive, but doesn't cover everything. And this is where you come in. If you have any configuration not listed in the test script, please run the attached information collector and post the results here.

Distinctively missing are:

1. Windows 2003
2. Windows Vista SP1
3. Windows Vista x64

1. Windows 98 SE
2. Windows NT4 SP0 - SP5
3. Windows 2000 SP1 - SP3
4. Windows XP SP0 - SP1
5. Windows 2003 SP1 - SP2

Thanks, all added and solved a bug with SP detection on Windows 98 thanks to it.

xbarns, are you sure the Windows 2003 SP1 data is correct? It says it's Windows XP SP1, client edition.

Thanks, it works now. R2 is good too. Every test helps to make sure WinVer will never fail.

Here is a test on windows 7 x64
I used that http://nsis.svn.sourceforge.net/view...ude/WinVer.nsh sources and winver.exe from this thread. Results are strange. I hope it is what it should be.
Here is a screenshot. In attachement the txt file, with text copied from test installer.

ReactOS 0.3.9
unfortunately i didn't get this as text-version and a brief ocr attempt failed.

Can't use that to verify it's ReactOS. The version information says it's Windows 2003.
