error message when installing 4.000

[Cher123825]

I have XP and actually no the previous version didn't work well either. Just thought when I got this it would do better.
I have downloaded the net framework and tried to down load the directx thing and when it was trying to run the program I got a error message on that. Didn't write it down. Sorry.
I was trying to play a previously imported file.

I guess downloading the file or files helped it is working pretty good now.
Let me ask you a question also.
Do you think because I got off the internet but, I have that darn aol dialer that kept trying to come on that, that might have caused a problem also.
Thanks

Yes, it could as this eats up system processing time. I would disable it when you are not needing internet connection. Force it to ask to connect only when you open IE.

We have had many problems reported from AOL users. Disable all their "stuff" that you can. It's just not worth what it does to your computer.

Whenever you see a "CRC" error, it means Cyclic Redundance Check, which is the error checking embedded in a downloaded file, and then computed on it also. Whenever a CDR error happens, the file contents are bad. As Dale said, the .gif image that was reported bad doesn't affect the program functioning, but as you said, redownloading fixed other problems.

Always redownload when a CRC error is reported. It was a bad transmission that damaged data. Anything goes at that point.

You got the error installing Net Frame or Directx? If it was Directx then you probably need to check to see that your video card supports Directx 9.

There are updates from Microsoft that don't install if you use the Express update. Best bet would be to go to Microsoft's Update website and do a Custom check. That way you get all the updates needed.

Since you are trying to play a previously imported file from an impaired (on your system at least) program, I would suggest you try importing it again with the new version and see if that doesn't sound better.
