DOCUMENT:Q90386 30-OCT-1999 [win3x] TITLE :After WFWG Setup, Microsoft C7 Compiler Doesn't Work PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows 3.x Retail Product PROD/VER:WINDOWS:3.1 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= After you install Microsoft Windows for Workgroups, you may need to reinstall the Microsoft C7 compiler. The C7 compiler replaces some of Microsoft Windows files with different versions. The Windows for Workgroups Setup program, in turn, updates these files, which may cause the application to fail. MORE INFORMATION ================ Possible Workaround ------------------- Before you attempt a total reinstall, follow these steps (this procedure may allow you to use C7 without reinstalling the program): 1. Add the following lines to the [386enh] section of your SYSTEM.INI file: DEVICE=\C700\BIN\VPFD.386 DEVICE=\C700\BIN\CVW1.386 DEVICE=\C700\BIN\VMB.386 where specifies the drive where you have C7 installed. 2. Verify that the [386enh] section of your SYSTEM.INI file contains the following line: DEVICE=*VMCPD If not, add this line as well. 3. Save your changes, then reboot your system. If this procedure doesn't allow you to use C7, then you need to reinstall the application.
