Posted in reply to StaveRunner | On Windows 9x family (95, 98, ME) the "system" directory is %WINDIR%\SYSTEM and on NT family (NT3.x, NT4.x, Win2K, XP) it is %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32. For added fun and confusion, NT family also have a %WINDIR%\SYSTEM directory, which is used for 16-bit dlls, and 9x family have a %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32 directory, which seems to have some driver things. This difference has been the bane of installer program writers' lives!
