I skipped 2.6.5, so I don't know if that version was problematic also. But for sure, 2.6.6 does not run on my Win98SE. The window opens but that's it... it remains black inside. No logo, no nothing.
I've gone back and re-installed 2.6.4 and it works perfectly. Tried re-installing 2.6.6 again and once again it fails to start successfully.
Anybody else? Andy?
Is it just me? G-Force 2.6.6 Gold will NOT run on Win98SE!

Just FYI, the plugin gets far enough along to erase the existing 2.6.4 version of G-Force Prefs (Winamp).txt, but not far enough along to create a new 2.6.6. version. I can close the plugin window (via "x") which is all black in the interior and there is no G-Force Prefs (Winamp).txt saved yet.
Also, I notice that in my WinXP environment (which works fine with 2.6.6) the version shown in G-Force Prefs (Winamp).txt is not 266 but rather 267. Is that of any relevance, or just indicative? There's an IF test in BOOT.TXT that looks for 266, so I'm suspicious. But then why does it work without problem in WinXP?

G-Force 2.6.7 addresses this problem and will be posted in a few hours from now.dsperber wrote:I skipped 2.6.5, so I don't know if that version was problematic also. But for sure, 2.6.6 does not run on my Win98SE. The window opens but that's it... it remains black inside. No logo, no nothing.
