What program are you trying to install? Is there a free demo/download with the
same issue?

In any case, please retest in 1.7.34 first.

That is quite Sharp of you Ken ;-)

I'm trying HP NonStop C++ croscompiler - an .exe, can be used to compile from
cmd line in Windows. See
https://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumbe...

Unfortuanatly no free versions - the HP business model sucks a bit.

I got it going with PlayOnLinux without any problems, so please close.
