Bart, thanks for this description which I found now 19 months later! I had trouble when installing the Win32 version of Lazarus/Fpc using fpcupdeluxe (needed because I wanted a cross-compile tool for RaspberryPi on my Windows10 x64 box). The install failed no matter what I did with an error message that was hard to decode for me. Now I have done the following as described above: - Started Servicemanager on my Win10 workstation. - Found the Intel service "XTUOCDriverService" and stopped it - Then I also set the type to disabled. - But I did *not* reboot, instead I renamed the common.dll in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 to _common.dll, which was allowed now. - Then I just started the fpcupdeluxe 32 bit exe and commanded it to install 3.2.2/Lazarus 2.2.6. And this time it succeeded! - So when it was done I could tell fpcupdeluxe to install the cross-compiler for arm-linux, which it also successfully completed. The base install took 19m30s and the cross another 5 minutes when it fetched the various source files from the Internet. And the new cross-compiler actually works to build applications for RaspberryPi on Widows10! :-) And Win64 applications from this 32 bit install as a cross... -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
