You are right:
- with Win98 I changed runningPlatform[0] == 4:,
which according to my knowledge: major == 4 and minor == 10; and 
therefore  should be OK ! (Ansi-version used !)

Pls. Note: For testing Me I used my "original" TestSw (without GcCollect 
& platformtest) Unicode-version

Pls. Note: For testing Xp I used my "original" TestSw (without GcCollect 
& platformtest) Unicode-version

- I'll try that as well - should I test first this working (on 
win2k)-ANSI version (with GcCollect) on WinMe and WinXp, or do you 
think, that Unicode/Ansi has no influence to the problem ?

I´ll do so after seen your answer first
