A couple of question come to mind as far as the installation goes. You state you are running Windows XP SP2. Do you have all the updates since then?

Do you have NetFrame installed? This is required as well but does need to be installed first before installing Hoster.

Are you running any version of MS Office or Works on this computer? If so again you need to make sure you have all the updates for it.

If you have Restore turned on, I would recommend you try that to get back to your Hoster version 3.303. Make sure it is working ok. Then:
  1. Update your Windows XP
  2. Install NetFrame if not already installed (should be listed as part of the updates for XP)
  3. Then run the Hoster install using the "Upgrade"
Be sure you reboot after each step so XP can finish the install of that item.

Thanks for your reply!

1. I have Microsoft Office for XP pro installed. It is the 2002 version. I have not gotten any updates for it that I know of.
2. I do have netframe version 2 installed
3. The version of XP Pro I have installed is not the xp2 version. I installed the regular verision and then installed every update that was available at the time. This included sp2 and sp2 updates. This was done not more than 3 weeks ago.
4. Hoster version 3.303 was the first version of Hoster installed on this machine as it is a new machine that I built and dedicated to KJ. I have done 2 shows from this machine, the last one being last night.
5. I can and have restored to a restore point just prior to the Hoster Version 3.310 version install.
6. I have Hoster version 3.310 installed on my other machine and it works fine. I also have NetFrame and Office XP pro installed on that machine. The biggest difference between the two machines is that I have not updated the XP Pro SP2 updates on the machine that works properly with Hoster Version 3.310.
7. The last install I did of Hoster Version 3.310 on the new machine was done with the update exe file placed in the my documents folder on my C:\drive and I did the upgrade install. I have never had this problem on my older machine.
I can and will go back to Version 3.303 until I find out what is going on. It is not critical because I have my backup machine(Original) but I would like to be able to use the newer version of hoster on the new machine. I will get all the updates for Office XP pro and double check for sp2 service pack updates. If there is anything else you can think of please let me know.

Thanks again
