After installing IC3 my 16-bit executables fail to run. How do I correct this?
In IC3 (up through Release 4, but now fixed in Release 4a), when the
Scala installer installed the key driver, an additional driver
component was selected that should not have been. On some systems, this
additional component can cause 16-bit executables to fail to run. Since
16-bit executables are quite rare these days, the problem can remain
unnoticed for some time. However, the Scala setup executables are
16-bit executables, and on such systems they will no longer run -- they
will appear to do nothing, or unpack and do nothing.
To correct this problem, you need to uninstall then correctly
reinstall the key driver. The key driver installation program is called
HInstall.exe and can be found in the folder where your Scala product
was installed, which is often something like:
C:\Program Files\Scala\<Product>
Where C: is the drive the product was installed to, and
<Product> is one of ICDesigner3, ICDesigner, ICPlayer,
NetManager, NetManagerEnterprise, or ICBroadcastServer.
Proceed as follows:
Remove the key driver by entering this command in the Start Menu Run... dialog:
(but use the correct path for your system)
C:\Program Files\Scala\<Product>\HInstall" /r /kp /alldrv
Reboot the computer.
Re-install the key driver by entering this command in the Start Menu Run... dialog:
(but use the correct path for your system)
C:\Program Files\Scala\<Product>\HInstall" /i /kp
