Best practice to store hardware ids

ProgramData would not be correct for Win XP (I think it is AppData in XP).

I'm assuming you would like to do this the same way that other Windows applications operate.

Use the "Get System Directory" function as Kyle suggested, but select "Public Application Data" instead.

To play nice with other applications, add a folder for your company, then a folder for the particular application.

I normally put my ini file in the same directory as my project/executable.  Then I use Application Directory to get the directory my config file should be in.
