I'm trying to fix a friend's computer with no luck... He wants to install Presto! Page Manager on his computer. He got it installed but is getting "C++ runtime error - abnormal program termination" in the program's EXE file when he opens the program.
I've installed two versions of the software - one that came with a UMAX scanner and one that came with an EPSON scanner. Both of them return the same errors.
I wasn't able to get the exact specs on the machine, but it's running WIN98, 160MB RAM, 6GB HD, and I'm not sure what processor speed.
I personally think it's a problem with Windows 98, so I was going to install win98 on top of itself, but when I loaded the setup from CD while booting it said the setup could not continue because the hard drive is compressed, which it is not. However, I was able to get setup to run by typing setup at the D: prompt, but it ran exxxtreeemlly slow (even during scan disk). "Preparing setup" took forever just to get to 100%, and when it finally did it didn't bring up the next screen. This is pretty odd because the system runs fairly well in win98 (but it did get low on system resources a couple of times).
Well, I'm stumped... what do you think?
Thanks,
Andrew
