OK all you N2 gurus ( I thought I was until this). Here's the deal. I =
bought a Gateway P-233 this summer and installed N2-Windows version on =
it just fine. I was unable to run N2 in Win95 environment, no big deal, =
I just ran it in DOS, and it worked just fine. (It ran great in Win95 =
on my P-100 Gateway before). Since getting the GNEP, I deleted my =
previous version of N2 to do a fresh install (I am ***like that). I =
manually deleted it not uninstall. Not that makes a difference since I =
formatted my C drive a few weeks ago (N2 is on E drive) and got rid of =
any residue from any programs I had installed before.
Now to the problem...I stick the CD in and get the Autorun window and =
choose Install and then get the White window of death which says ... =
SYSTEM ERROR
The file you are trying to open is already in use by another program. =
Quit the other program and then try again. CANCEL RETRY =20
Funny thing is that nothing else is running. The Start-Up folder has =
nothing of interest and can't find nothin else that is running (Open up =
Task Manager and nothing out of the ordinary).
So I Try RETRY...nothing. Hit Cancel, then it goes to the Black window =
with the Sierra logo and another Install option. Click install and =
another White window...SETUP
An error has occured in your program. To keep working, click ignore and =
save your work in a new file. To quit, click close. CLOSE =
IGNORE....clicking either one gets another error window with the option =
of close. That's it! Can't install Window95 version. I have installed =
the DOS version just fine, so I am racing. I want to get this fixed for =
when NROS comes, I may be screwed if it's Win95 envirnment only, plus =
the fact it doesn't work and it should. =20
Oh, I installed it to my roommates laptop and it worked fine, so it is =
not the CD, it's this expensive PC.
Thanks
Eric
