AJ hasn't committed the patch I sent in yet. When he does it won't hang anymore (but I'm seeing other problems). Fortunately Jeremy is going to lock Rob in a room until InstallShield works shortly, which is good because I don't have any spare time to work on this right now (university sucking ...) thanks -mike

Good! Try finding a MessageBeep() call in the relay log in case of the speaker beep to find out what it is complaining about... Andreas Mohr
Re: installshield and Wine
Update: I found the following tip on frankscorner.org: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ole32,oleaut32,rpcrt4=n" wine setup.exe this enabled me to successfully run the installation for NS 7 prefered. This did not work on wine-20050211 Thanks for your help.

Re: installshield and Wine
Hi Mike , any progress here? I have just updated to wine-cvs (2005 03 05 9am CET) and I see no change in this blockage. Installshield runs upto the point where I have selected the install options then locks up when I click "next". The only respone I can get is that any mouse click or key press when it has the focus gets a beep from the pc speaker so it's not complely crashed but something is badly wrong. Any suggestions. I guess I'm not alone here.

But I tried to install Dragon NS 7 yesterday and it hung completely with a system wide modal in the middle of the screen. I had to kill the parent. There has been some regressions in Wine recently it seems , what would be the best wine version to install to get around this issue.? Thanks. Same here. I was trying to install the Empire Earth 2 demo, just for fun, but the installer bailed out with an error message. Thanks to whoever has some info, Sijmen Mulder
