Hi,

I tried to install Visual C++ 6 (German) on my Embedded System. After
calling <setup.exe> I see the first dialog. If I press <Next> I get the
message:

Program Error
unknown has generated errors and will be closed by Windows.
You will need to restart the program.
An error log is beeing created.
Ok

After setting the compatibility mode to <Win98/Win ME> the installation
works fine.

Do anybody know the reason for this?

Regards,
Günter

In case you're trying to debug the behaviour of a VC application on XPE, I
would suggest to use Remote Debugging instead. Even if you succeed in
installing the VC IDE, the system is changed substantially, and you won't
hardly get any realistic results.
 
Hi,

No I would like to test if my image contains all necesarry components.
Therefor I tried to install different applications.

The problem seems to be the DLL <ntdll.dll>. On Windows Professional I have
the version 5.1.2600.1106 and on the Embedded 5.1.2600.1217. The newer
version is from Q815021. Is the DLL or the installation from Visual C++ 6
wrong?

Any ideas?

Regards,
Günter
