George,
This is a little strange, but the installer fails to run under Windows XP
(final)... I get two error messages from the Side by Side service (which
controls the concurrent installation of multiple versions of .dlls in the
system directory):
"Syntax error in manifest or policy file "C:\Documents and
Settings\eoconnor\Desktop\p95v21.exe" on line 1"
"Generate Activation Context failed for C:\Documents and
Settings\eoconnor\Desktop\p95v21.exe. Reference error message: The operation
completed successfully."
Getting the .zip and manually doing things works fine, and prime95 itself
runs without problems. I have no idea what's up with the installer. I'll try
to do some digging into the SxS stuff later today.

Subject: Mersenne: New v21 beta
Hi all,
The world's longest beta test continues..... New beta of prime95 is at
http://www.mersenne.org/freesoft.htm Linux and NT service version has
not been updated yet.
This release has a new menu choice ... Options/Benchmark.
The page http://www.mersenne.org/bench.htm has been stripped of
all version 20 benchmarks for Celeron 2, Pentium 3, and Athlon processors.
I need version 21 benchmarks for these CPUs to help me populate the
new benchmarks page.
Thanks!
George
P.S. Sorry for the long beta period, I haven't had a lot of free time
lately.
