there are 1 or 2 more file kinds which are not shown here they have been proven to be helpful sometimes to delete before reinstall sorry i can't find the info
it was a procedure from protel that supersceded this one by adding these files
as i mentioned and vaguely remember they were .tpl or .bpl or both ?
anyone know ?

a clean install of protel 99se involves deleting certain files from \windows
before the new install because some files are not replaced
there a procedure here somewhere in these archives sorry i don't exactly remember it all
there is a bit more to it than the *.rcs and *.ini files
tpl or bpl or something
maybe someone has it handy

did you mean a clean reinstall of Windows or of Protel.
I have installed and removed Protel 99SE SP6 4 times. I
even installed
Protel on my web server (it worked) and copied the
C:\Program Files\Design
Explorer 99 SE directory and put it on the new machine. Still no luck.
I finally figured out my C compiler problem (the date was
set to the year
2053) but Parts and Vendors will still not install?
Is it my computer or Protel?
It could be my computer but I just installed Windows XP Pro
on my machine so
it should be a clean install.

Trent,
the message that you are receiving seems to be
related to Protel not
finding the *.ins files for certain process servers within
Protel. Most of
the functions and operations within Protel run from these
"servers". So your
servers are not being "installed" or run when you open
Protel. it sounds
like you have a number of them missing, one for each time
you have to press
the return key.
If you look in your C:\Program Files\Design
Explorer 99 SE\System
directory you will undoubtedly not be able to find the files it is
complaining about. Therefore all of those processes will
not run within
Protel. Typically each of these processes have a .dll,
.ico, .rcs and a .ins
file in that directory. It is complaining that it can't
find the .ins files
for the mentioned specific processes. (Maybe other files
are also missing.)
Sounds like a clean re-install is called for.

I am moving to a new machine but I am having problems
running Protel SE SP6.
When I start Protel I get the following error: "Cannot locate server initialization file:"
Sometimes this comes up for a while and I have to keep
pressing return.
When I finally clear the error I cannot open any Protel
files. When I open
them I don't get an error, they just don't open.
Any suggestions
My new machine Athlon XP 2000+ 512 MB of RAM Windows XP Service Pack1 NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200
To tell you the truth it might not be Protel's fault.
There are a couple of
things that don't work. The installation for Parts and
Vendors (a computer
package) will not go through the whole way and I cannot run
my Rabbit
Semiconductor C compiler without it crashing. These
problems do not happen
on other machines.
