Hi, there is one another problem with KB885250 hotfix: Prerequisities: - Windows XP workstation, - Windows 98 server, - Any application with visual styles (XP themes) support installed on that Win 98 Symptoms: When I try to launch the application a message appears: "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem." When launching the app from Win 98 - everything OK. I checked out a core of the problem is a visual styles manifest (no matter compiled in exe resources or in separate file) but I think there is no way to solve it without MS intervention (hotfix on hotfix). Any idea?
