kocoman Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 Has anyone got Yourself Fitness to run? I use 98SE2ME to get shell32 to 5.5 instead of 4.7 to bypass the error message SHGetFolderPathA. It runs after the 98SE2ME but it just hangs at the warning screen...? I will try win2k if no one reply. Thanks

It runs after the 98SE2ME but it just hangs at the warning screen...? I will try win2k if no one reply. ThanksSHGetFolderPathA, IIRC is related to the Windows Media Player shell files...it's been awhile since I saw this error (back in the early days before 982MEexisted as a script and I was still fooling around with switching the shell toME from 98se manually...) I believe I was able to fix it by adding some ofthe WinME files to the system folder..shlwapi.dll? I'm not sure anymore,itmight even be a different file altogether..You might want to try and install WMP 7.1 (and or update to WMP9) if youdidn't\haven't already?Hang around here a bit, if you can't fix it yourself with the info I gave, I'msure that MGX (Axcel216's other name) will be around and he'll have muchbetter insight to the problem than I ever would.--iWindoze (Who hopes he's helped in some small way if only to annouce that'hope is on the way' <---WTF?!? I need to stop channeling Bush!)
kocoman Posted October 16, 2005 Author Posted October 16, 2005 Well I install WMP 9 for win98 but still same hang. I switch to win2k and the game works. Oh well win2k will be used then.. thanks for the info.
MDGx Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 I am not familiar with that game.I've tried 98SE2ME option 3 [the one that installs shell32.dll from ME setup CD] with lots of apps + games, but never seen that or similar error. ;(Please keep in mind that one needs to install the entire option 3 the way it is, not just shell32.dll.Installing only shell32.dll form ME will lock up the 98SE OS.Have you tried to contact the game developers/vendors for support/patches/etc?
