RE: Windows XP Installation Problems
Well, I finally figured out the problem, it was a corrupt installation package. Funny thing is I downloaded three different times from different sites. Working now, thanks. -=Bryan=- -Original Message- From: Miguel Angel Solórzano [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2002 7:22 PM To: Lukoni, Bryan AG:EX; 'Michael Bunzel' Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: Windows XP Installation Problems At 16:40 10/9/2002 -0700, Lukoni, Bryan AG:EX wrote: Hi, Thanks Michel: Enabled the error reporting, but no luck.

RE: Windows XP Installation Problems
Thanks, I have the installation files on the HD, not using the CD. I do have admin access to the machine, never had a problem installing programs before. Can you explain how to make XP can run in 16 bit mode. -=Bryan=- -Original Message- From: b.ware [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 09, 2002 5:27 PM To: Lukoni, Bryan AG:EX; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Re: Windows XP Installation Problems If it installed on Pro at home, it should do the same on another pc running Pro.(in a perfect world maybe) try these troubleshooting steps. FIRST: check you Privileges. Make sure you are authorized to install software on the system. 2ND: instead of double clicking the setup.exe, use XP's add software app, and let XP find the setup.exe and auto install it. 3RD: check the settings, i.e. DMA, Disconnect, etc. of the CD Rom Drive you are using to install the software. Some large apps dont install properly due to the CD Drive's buffer not being large enough to handle a continueous feed of data to the HD. 4TH: copy the complete CD to the HD and install from the hard drive, if necessary. 5TH: Try to install it while in 16-bit mode.

Re: Windows XP Installation Problems
Hi Bryan, could it be that you deactivated the Windows XP error reporting function? Activate it for the Windows Operating System and All Programs and try installing MySQL again. If an error message occurs the provided data might help you track down the problem... If not don't forget to deactivate it again ;-) -- Michael Bunzel LintraNex Systems Vienna, Austria Lukoni, Bryan AG:EX wrote: I am unable to install either version MySQL 4.03 or the release MySQL 3.23 on a XP professional operating system.
