Installing Hoster on laptop

Hi,
Finally purchased my laptop and now I want to install Hoster on it. I enter my name and details and registration number and the next window asks if I want to copy the details to a floppy. I can't get past this window. I don't have a floppy drive, I don't want to copy the details I just want to move on and install. What should I do?

Angry Still trying to install Hoster on my laptop

Thanks for the link to FAQ. I did as instructed there with a USB memory stick but when I resumed and entered my details again it said my registration number was not recognized or different to the software. This is the number that was e-mailed to me. I'm going round and round. I have now connected the laptop to the internet and downloaded a demo version, but how do I register it?

Please help

I'm now downloading the 3120 exe from My Store to a floppy to transfer to the laptop. I tried downloading it to the laptop (seems to take longer than it should) but when I tried to run it the message was 'hoster 3120setupexe is not a valid win32 application.' I'll keep trying.

That's a good indication that the download was probably interfered with. Chances are either you or your server has a download accellerator installed that messed up the download, or you have a firewall installed that interfered with the download, and when you try to install it, windows cannot recognize it as a valid application.

Thanks George,
Tried again with firewall disbled and same result. I think I had it disabled the last time too.
What now? I'd like to have it working by the weekend.

Thanks again,

go to a friends house with your download link and try to download it there to a CD.

Smallan,
Please email me your name and email address so that I can send you another link to make this work for you.

The WIN32 error means that the file or our scripts are not allowing the file to download to your system correctly. This has something to do with your computer. I can get you a direct link so that you can download the file. Please send me an email.
