Ok I downloaded a prog, installed and running. I want to run it on the other PC but whenever I try to I get this- runtime error-2147319779(8002801d): Automation error.
Anybody have a clue what that means?
I have tried getting the prog across the network and re-downloading it, It always does the same thing!

bothered.

Why don't they just replace runtime error with 'no'?

    That runtime error brings up an old nightmare of good old detonator drivers. Anybody with an nvidia card have probably seen the runtime error or the Bsod with that loop error.

    Is it ONLY that proggy that brings that error up?

    What proggy, os, etc on the other machine?

    The same prog runs ok on PC 1.
    The problem is only on PC2.
    PC1 is as sig, PC2 has 1.3 Duron, 512Mb, Geforce 440mx. Both running XP.
    I have looked at runtime errors and it gives a list but Automation error isn't on it.
    I have disabled all the startup progs and turned off power management, No change.

    bothered.

    Would you be able to swap the videocards around to see if my idea is right or wrong?

    I'd rather not to be honest. I will update the drivers later though.
    I have had a few emails from the manufacturers. They sent me a link to download a part of the prog. When I ran it the setting screen opened without an error, but in Chinese. I told them this and got another email from them. They say they will modify and recompile it and will be in touch in a couple of days. I will play with the drivers and see what happens.
    Thanks for responding Mackanz.

    bothered.
