Re: Problem installing Metastock Pro

["Nick Channon" <nick.channon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to James, Theo, and everyone else who sent me suggestions on how to
fix the problem I have installing MS Pro. Unfortunately no luck, however,
even with SP2 and various video settings. I searched the Microsoft site and
found the following info:

"Message:
The instruction at "0xparameter " referenced memory at "0xparameter ". The
memory could not be "text ".

User Action:
This is a Windows 2000 Executive STATUS error message. Choose an option from
the message box. Contact your technical support group."

I don't know what an "Executive STATUS" is but I guess I'm just going to
have to reinstall Windows2000 and hope for the best.

Any further suggestions welcome!

Regards,
Nick
