problem of a friend in installing winboard

Postby Uri Blass » 16 Jul 2005, 17:55

In the israeli chess forum I gave link to download winboard

http://www.tim-mann.org/xboard.html and said that it is possible to download it by clicking Download stable WinBoard 4.2.7

Dani Reznikov said that he has a problem

He says that when he downloads the file and try to use it he gets the following message

after some second it gets error message

I did not download winboard lately and I have no idea what is the problem.
It can be productive if you find what is the problem.

Hello Uri,
my knowledge of Hebrew is quite limited,
but there seems to be a problem with the "autoexec.nt",
which is meant to give some compatibility with elder software.
Google led me to this page
Code: Select all
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324767&Product=winxp

and i think it is not necessarily a winboard problem.

Hope this helps a little bit,

Peter
