How to get System Type in VC++?

I am looking for a function which can return system type i.e. "Windows x64" or "Windows NT x64" etc.

Is there any function which I can use?

Thanks!

There's a complete document available on MSDN that shows exactly how to accomplish this.

GetVersionEx() tells you about the operating system version.

If you want to know whether the underlying system is 32 bit or 64 bit then I recommend reading how Raymond Chen explains it.
