__CxxFrameHandler3 During Windows XP Startup, After Product Installation?
Oct 8, 2009
Some software was installed on 8 XPSP2 PCs at 3 seperate times. 3 of the PCs, after installation, were restarted as per the installation instructions.When restarted, Windows XP displayed an error:The procedure entry point ___CxxFrameHandler3 could not be located in the dynamic link library Msvcrt.dll. and Windows will not start. (nor in Safemode)The problem I am having is that Msvcrt.dll is not shipped with the program, and from my research it is related to C++. The program is written in VB6 so I am confused.It could just be a coinsidence, but it only happens after the installation has told the user to restart the computer, so must be directly related to the installation. However, if the installation files were wrong or corrupt, NO installations would work correctly and we would have a problem on all of the PCs.

I'm struggling with a problem at remot installations. I released my Beta software which was always running fine on a lot of systems Win XP , Win2003, Win 7.Now I have a strange problem at some remote installation. After starting the program it will crash right away, not even geting throug the new or load Events.All my integrated debugging is useless. I don't know how I should debug such a problem.I guess there are some files missing at the remote systems. I have no idea which files. It could also be because of some third party components. I only have an event (see below) which is not of much help (to me).I found some other threads about the same CLR20r3 event but it was not very usefull. I need to get this application up and running. What steps should I take. I have some very good Beta testers.

Can I have Two basic Questions about Setup Project deploying -
1, After I put company's logo at startup installation, there was still text shown up "Welcome xxxx setup.." together with the logo, how to remove it and display company's logo only? Also, if using text display and the text is too long, how to return to next line?
2, If I setup more than once, I was told to remove the first one using Add/Remove program in Control Panel before setting up new program. How can I use a dialog like "Overwrite the existing program"?

I can hide my startup form (or make it appear hidden) on startup. I can start my app on windows startup--through registry values--if the user checks a checkbox.
But if the app starts up on windows startup, I want the form to be hidden, so the program can just keep working without bothering anyone. If it starts up because the user started it, I want the form to be showing, because the user probably wants to change some settings or something.

I have an installation of VS2010 with Windows 7 at work and a laptop with Windows 7 X64. I transferred a whole set of project files to the laptop but the directory "Documents" does not exist on the laptop - it is called "My Documents". As such of course I get errors when loading the project on the X64 machine as the resource files cannot be found. I have tried changing the name of the directory to "Documents" to accord with the other PC, and this was apparetnly successful. But, VS still does not "see" the files in the renamed directory. How can I simply change the path name for the resource files so that VS can see these files?

I have 2 datagrids. One to show Product information and another for Product purchase details entry. Both share the same dataset. The dataset (ds) is filled up with columns from 2 table
ProductMstrTbl : ProductID, ProductName..
ProductDetailsTbl: ProductID, PurchaseDate, Amt, BalanceQty..
DataSet(ds) : ProductID, ProductName, PurchaseDate, Amt, BalanceQty.
The problem is that: Showing from dataset or entering new records into the dataset is no problem, but am not able to save the modified dataset into DataBase. SqlCommandBuilder failed to generate the corresponding INSERT, UPDATE command as the dataset has multiple base tables.

I have developed an application in VB.Net 2005 Express. This app was then transformed into a windows service using a template I found on this forum. I am able to install the service using InstallUtil.exe and I am very happy, BUT the powers that be me are asking for a more eligant method of installing / upgrading the service.
All of my reading suggests I need to upgrade to VS 2008 Enterprise to achieve this goal. Before I lash out and reach for my credit card, can someone confirm the minimum requirement to achieve a pretty service installation.

I currently have a windows service that is packaged up as an msi installer. However, during the installation i need the user to input their required filepath (to string) location. The filepath variable currently resides in my component class called MyNewService that is inherited from System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.
Is there anyway i can allow the user to define the filepath variable during installation?

When you look in the "software" that you have installed you see the size of the software and the version. After I have installed my software I don't see the version in the list. Only the size of the installation. I was wondering how I can change that. Could it be that it is because I used InnoSetup and I need to set it in there or is Windows reading the version of the .exe itself?

I've written a small program to open at startup, but I want to give the user the ability to delete it from showing on startup by clicking a button.But it needs to be compatible on XP, Vista and Windows 7. Is there a line of code which will get the default startup folder path automatically so I can then delete it using my button?

I developed an application in Visual Basic 2010 Express which has two features:
1) It is portable and uses some .dlls which must be in the same folder
2) Requires Administrator in order to run
I want my application to run on windows startup. So i created the registry string value and made some tests that gave me the following results:
1) Windows XP -> Runs on startup without any errors
2) Windows 7 Starter -> It simply ignores my application
3) Windows 7 Premium -> The run confirmation box from unknown publisher appeared and when i selected to run, AVG gave a virus warning
4) Windows 8 Consumer Preview -> It simply ignores my application

I'm trying to install an app on a windows server that is always on, but I'm running into problems. I've heard that I shouldn't make it a windows service (and would personally rather have a dialog app so I can see progress, etc) so I'm trying to use task scheduler. However, task scheduler keeps trying to close my app prematurely when it should only open it and leave it open.how I could have a dialog app run on startup (and stay running) on my server?
