Hi,

 

As I am trying to reinstall using genuine CD, the setup stops prompting :

 

"An error occurred while launching the setup. The remote procedure call failed".

 

Anyone else has ever faced it ?

 

 

EDIT1 : A similar problem with PSS A340 (genuine CD). The setup stops without any prompt.

 

EDIT2 : Neither PSS DHC-300 would continue setup. In all-three cases the "Just validating"

phase is missing. Maybe the setup doesn't like the the 64 bit OS ?

Have you tried copying the disk to a hard drive?  That may or may not help. If it does not then the installer is probably 16 bit and simply won't work in a 64 bit environment or the RPC was to a remote server that no longer exists.

Do you know anyone with a 32bit version of Windows who would let you install it on their PC?  You could then copy it over to your own PC????  Just a thought, that's all.

DJ,

 

I did copy it the hard drive, I even used a desktop shortcut and ran it with no good results. This time it could not load

FSMod.dll.

 

Dijvid,

 

I tried to copy and paste from my previous winXP SP3, but the PSS panel did not show up.

 

Yet, I am just wondering, if I was the only one that came across the issue out of all FS community.

sotiris, read this thread over at CalClassic forums, it's the same problem as yours but with the FS2004 disk 4:

Read Post #9, that contains the Microsoft workaround for this problem.

A32XX,

 

I want to tell you "a million thanks", as it worked now !

 

Take care.
