Installation of software on this CD ROM
Installation of the software on this CD-ROM

 We hope that we have created a simple and easy to use installation program!  Our installation program will launch or begin the installation process for the other programs on this CD-ROM.  This should spare you from having to locate the installation file for each program, we do it for you!

When you press the install button,  our CD-ROM installer will install the products that you have selected by checking the box next to its name.  Additionally, the program checks if you have Video for Windows runtime support installed.  If you do not or have a version that is earlier than that on our Insane Impersonations CD-ROM, we will install it automatically for you - with your permission of course!

Once you have installed both programs, there will be two new groups in your program manager.  They  should appear like :

If you choose to install the latest version of Video for windows (1.1a), you will have to restart your computer after it  has finished its installation.  After that, rerun the setup program and  to view the movies select the A/V presentations menu and choose one to watch.

Troubleshooting

During installation of our CD-ROM installer you may encounter an error message such as  the following.

A version of COMMDLG.DLL already exists - can not overwrite.

A version of CMDIALOG.VBX already exists - can not overwrite.

File not found  or related error message.

Compobj.dll   or  related error message.

Root-only  or related error message.


Commdlg.dll Already exists...

The installation process aborts because there is a file called COMMDLG.DLL in your Windows directory, that should be in your Windows/system directory.  You should copy the file to your windows/system directory and remove it from your windows directory.  Older  versions of Visual Basic incorrectly put the common dialog dynamic link library in the windows directory.


CMDIALOG.VBX already exists...

The installation process aborts because there is a file called CMDIALOG.VBX  in your Windows directory, that should be in your Windows/system directory.  You should copy the file to your windows/system directory and remove it from your windows directory.  Older  versions of Visual Basic incorrectly put the common dialog control in the windows directory.


File not found...

This error is related to a bug in the CD-ROM READERs' driver,  CD-ROM READERs' firmware or need to get latest version of MSCDEX.


Commobj.dll ...

This problem goes away after you close all applications and restart Windows.  Apparently caused when Video for Windows has just been installed and Windows has not been restarted yet.


Root only...

This is a problem with the CD-ROM READER's driver or firmware.  Consult the CD-ROM READER manufacturer for assistance.
