My seldom used WinDoze NT needed a modern version of Squeak, so I downloaded from
http://www.squeak.org/download/index.html
It fails almost immediately upon trying to start an image.
A gray error window claiming "Application Error..."
After rebooting the machine in WinDoze 98, the very same installation appears to work fine.
An old Squeak 3.2 works fine on NT.
I noticed that the files are fairly recent, so it's possible I am the first to stumble over
some configuration glitch?
Repeated, downloading from NetScape, IE,
even via Mac and unstuffing onto a Zip disk...
each way producing similar quick death under NT
so I doubt the non-binary data corruption problem.
Wait, check list since April 11...
Ref: Andreas Raab's message of April 16...
> Can you describe in more detail what happens when you start Squeak? Do you
Transcribing from other screen:
Dr. Watson for Windows NT
An application error has occurred
and an application error log is being generated
Squeak.exe
Exception access violation (0xc0000005) Address: 0x77e78784
but I do not see a Watson error log or I'd drag it back over via Zip.
Dragging an old image onto the squeak.exe produces same result.
