jimmsta Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Ah, good. I was worried about some of the bugs in the 2.1 release thread. Hope this is the end-all solution for 2.1. I'll be testing this as soon as I restore the rest of my programs (reinstalled OS, re-partitioned drives to allow for REAL DOS 7.1 and Win9x installation ).

I'll be testing this as soon as I restore the rest of my programs (reinstalled OS, re-partitioned drives to allow for REAL DOS 7.1 and Win9x installation ).In fact, they were not any serious bug in the 2.1, but I want to quickly fix the reported problems.
charles__ Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 I have no problems with 2.1 but will install the newer one. Thanks for the great job you have done Gape.
appp Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 It's great that SP provides two great PowerToys: CommandPromptHere and TweakUI.There is one more great tool from the past that I would love to see in SP (optional).It is WinTop (aka Windows Process Watcher, aka top for windows). It is a part of this package:http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloa...Toy/Default.aspI check that it works and it is a perfect tool to actually see what is actually running.
WebMatze Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Hello,with your version 2.1a i got a problem while installing, before the end of the SP install, Windows tells me that the compobj.dll file has been replaced by an older version, that the file is in use and that windows must restart to repair the problem.Is it possible to avoid that message to be shown?
Acheron Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) Great to see the time-stamp stuff fixed in latest version. Edited December 1, 2005 by hp38guser

Have you had any problems using it with 98SE? Just wondering why they say not to....ivman
WebMatze Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 @ gape,French SP on French Windows 98 SE...Compobj.dll is english, i didn't find it in french.To original file is the version 2.3.200.0 and the new one is 2.3.200.1...any idea?
Gape Posted November 30, 2005 Author Posted November 30, 2005 French SP on French Windows 98 SE...Compobj.dll is english, i didn't find it in french.To original file is the version 2.3.200.0 and the new one is 2.3.200.1...Try this:COMPOBJ.DLL,,COMPOBJ.TMP,4Also try to add a line to Copy.Sysbckup:COMPOBJ.DLL,,,4Please let me know the result.
WebMatze Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 I tried to add this lineCOMPOBJ.DLL,,COMPOBJ.TMP,4and the same message is displayed but this time after the reboot,i will try your second suggestion...
WebMatze Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Yes it works with the two lines....thanks.
Gape Posted November 30, 2005 Author Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) Yes it works with the two lines....Thanks WebMatze. It looks like a language problem. Does anyone have this problem in English Win 98 SE?@swgreed: It looks like DSOUND.DLL problem is similar. Please, add these two lines for DSOUND.DLL and COMPOBJ.DLL to solve "in use" problems.
