| Blitz+ has been nothing but a horror on this machine. B2D works just fine. I have noticed b+ acts differently on just about every machine I place it on. Now the IDE itself wont even open, whenever I try I get this: [img ftp://user:blitz@...] I have reinstalled it twice and i have the 137 update. When the IDE used to open blitzcc would still crash on every single compile. If you made blitzcc crash twice then it would freeze, requiring reboot. |

| Your sig. says XP but that dialog box looks like a '98 one.  When you say 'this machine', do you mean the one in your sig. or are you referring to something else? |

| That PC's mobo is going through the RMA process with ABit. This is occurring on my Win98 / PII 233 / GeforceFX 5200 / DX9b machine. * Update * Now when I try it gives me a new error msg: [img ftp://user:blitz@...] And yes this is still b+ contrary to the title bar |

| Maybe you have both B+ and Blit2D and B+ opens the Blitz2D compiler ? It could be some wrong path. | 
| 
 | ||
| Nope, thats the msg the B+ IDE gives me every time I try to open it. The runtime.dll is sitting in the bin folder as usual. | 
| 
 | ||
| eikon: your sig tries to open a ftp site btw. | 
| 
 | ||
| Yea, that would be mine. | 
| 
 | ||
| Did you install to the default folder?  Have you tried reinstalling?  Do you have some unique software installed on your system that others don't? Skully | 
| 
 | ||
| Yes, all default settings. Reinstalled many times. I noticed that it works with the initial install but either 136 or 137 patch breaks it. Nothing special running... this is just a very basic 98 system. The IDE now opens with 136/137 but everything i compile crashes blitzcc |

| Maybe B+ just doesn't work on 98. But I had something like this happen and I found that I had accidently deleted a file when looking through the folders. Thank god for recycle bin! Check if you have accidently deleted a file crucial for the prgm to run. Hope it helps. -Rich05 |

| There was in issue with 24 bit versions of the toolbars which are not compatible with windows98 included in one of the updates. I would try re-downloading 137 and patching the original working install. | 
| 
 | ||
| Thanks but i've already reformatted and moved on to Win2k. B+ seems to be fine so far :) |

| Nobody seems to have noticed that the first error shown was from Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime library. Visual Studio does seem to intercept messages intended for other apps. So, I suggest you try with the presence of Visual Studio. |
