Install+Under+WinXP-Dumo




 * Installation under XP by RAF_Dumoulin**

Never fail installation of EAW under OS WinXP (all versions) Hello, It's my way to install EAW underXP..and this never fail for me or on others configurations where I (or others) install it. The first and important rule..IS TO NOT INSTALL EAW ...........LOL. Instead....... Made ...or have a copy on a CD_R (or any other portable support) of a EAW full install patched 1.2 (eventally also NO-CD) running good under Win98. Simply past this copy in a created folder of your choice. OR MORE SIMPLE: Copy past your entire EAW CD in folder you create on your hard disk. If you want have a clean EAW .. remove all the non necessary files (not mandatory) Why this operation....??? Mainly the probs with XP come from the record in the registry base of the installation of EAW. With the procedure above...WinXP don't know EAW is running on the system. If you have a message error with NT in or Win32......please go to: C:\Widows\System32 and copy the file autoexec.nt and save this file in a reserve folder.After that..go to C:\Windows\repair...and copy the file autoexec.nt Paste this file in C:\windows\System32 and let overwrite. It's must cure your error message. If any probs...(normally no probs..) please past again in C:\Windows\System32 your saved file from the reserve folder. If this trick no work...see also this link: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324767 Just a additionnal note: If you intend to install OAWunified...please proceed to a exam of all the files of EAW for eliminate the eventual files showing a read only attribute. If read only attribute you will maybe have probs when you run first time OAW. Good luck and nice fights. Dumo.
