Edward Jones | Further to this the next error that comes up immediately after you close the illegal operation window is "Exception EInOutError in module EDBSRVR... Unable to create directory".

<< Has anyone had luck running EDBSRVR under Windows 98? I am trying to and just get "This program has performed an illegal operation" and wont start. >> I'm looking into this. I've got to put Windows 98 on a virtual machine, which is what is taking so long because I can't find a bootable disc for the OS anywhere. I've got the MSDN copies of Windows 98/SE/ME, but they're all on non-bootable DVDs, and I'm having a heck of a time trying to make a bootable .ISO from them. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

I have not used it for *ages* so I would want to fire it up first. I also have a copy of all the files from a W98SE_CD ioncluding its floppy(!) boot disk. If the problem is making the bootable CD, Google for Bart's Bootable CD. That should lead you to resources to make your own ones from scratch or obtain ready made ones. -- |

It's making a bootable CD or ISO image that is killing me. I used to have original bootable CDs from Gateway and Dell from way back when, but those left with the computers when they were donated to various non-profits in town over the years. << If the problem is making the bootable CD, Google for Bart's Bootable CD.
