Scenchap Help

[Bodman]

HI,
I have just installed Scenchap 1.22 but when i try to run it I get the hour glass beside the mouse for a brief second then nothing. I have uninstalled - reinstalled but still no good...anyone got any ideas

I've never seen anything like that. I've tested it on Win98SE, Win2K, and WinXP -- mostly WinXP. If you can help me see the problem on my machine here I can debug it.

This is a strange one. Im running XP and all the other software I use works no probs. I was wondering if anyone has a slightly older version than 1.22 I can try......maybe I need to think about putting win2k on :(

I have scenarist and dvd2avi installed is there anything else I need (dlls etc)

hi there,

just to throw you a few breadcrumbs on your journey to fixing your problem, i've installed 1.22 on xp and it starts up just fine.

You don't need anything else. ScenChap is self contained. (It's most useful to people using either CCE or Scenarist.)

This shouldn't make a difference, but I can't think of anything else to try: You can launch ScenChap from a Command Prompt Window and see if it complains about anything. Again, this probably won't help, because ScenChap already tries to capture any text output that you would see in a command prompt window and pop it up in its own window.

You're not seeing any error message windows, right?

Tried from command prompt no joy. yes no error windows :(

I'm out of ideas. I'll post again if I think of something later.

I reinstalled my second machine with Win2k and it works fine on there. I must have a screwy OS :(
