------- Additional Comments From simon@unisolve.com.au 2003-04-23 06:32 ------- Thanks for the suggestion Mike.
I've downloaded DCOM98.exe, but when I try to install it, I get an error window that says:
A newer version of DCOM95 or DCOM98 had been installed. To override, you must uninstall the current version first.
To ensure that I was not getting this error due to old dcom software lying around, I then setup my wine config file so that it pointed to new c: and e: drives (empty except for the minimum Windows directories you guys recommend. So therefore it's a Unix only empty widows system).
It still generated the same error.
I searched for the error in the winehq bug list, and on google generally. I saw a few mentions, but no obvious resolution.
If anyone can help me to progress this, I would be most grateful. I'm very keen to install this app, (and others like it), that I have purchased for my kids, and dammit (!) I don't want Windoze in the house ;-)
