SIW 1.65 Build 623 is available

See what's new here.

SIW 1.64 is unable to save its configuration file.

The options are saved in an xml file called "C:\Documents and Settings\%USER%\Application Data\gtopala\SIW\siw_init.xml" (Win NT, 2000, XP, 2003 or Vista) or "C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\gtopala\SIW\siw_init.xml" (Win 9x). SIW 1.64 fails to create the "gtopala\siw\" folders if they don't exist before creating the options file. Workaround: manually create these folders. Thanks to Michel Cote for reporting this bug.

SIW and Catalan Language

Benny Beat wrote the Catalan translation. Thanks.

Finding the Windows 98 Product Key.

Because you were asked for the Key when you first installed Windows, it's saved in the Registry. Even if you are unable to start Windows, as long as you can get to the command line,(a C:\ prompt) you can run this on the SYSTEM.DAT file that's part of the Registry. For Windows 98 installations, type: find.exe /I "ProductKey" %winbootdir%\SYSTEM.DAT The first line of the values returned should show the product key in a form similar to: ?????-?????-?????-?????-?????.
