Problems Installing Windows 5.0.4

[Art Moore]

I am retiring two portable computers that have served as my WINDOWS systems for much longer than I would have ever guessed.  But, it is time.

I am replacing it with an HP model zd7000 which has WINDOWS XP Professional operating system.

I am having erratic results and no success in trying to install my filePro for WINDOWS 5.0.4.  I made 5 attempts and finally decided to seek help.  HELP!!

Erratic in that some of the installs failed to include a file called errmsg in the /fp/lib directory.  From this install situation when I tried to run any of the filePro operations I got the error message:  A filePro Error Has Occurred  --  On File: C:/fp/lib/IBMPRO.prt  --  PRMESSG : Cannot Open C: /fp/lib/errmsg  --  errno is 0  --  filePro Error Number: 76

When the install did include the above file (errmsg) I got the following error message(s):

1. For the CREATION OPERATIONS the error was:  A filePro Error Has Occurred  --  On file: C:\fp\lib\IBMPRO.prt  -- lm error: LICENSE EXPIRED.

2.  For the RUNTIME OPERATIONS the error was as above in some instances and the following in others:  A filePro  Error Has Occurred  --  this version is licensed for %d users  --  On File: C:/fp/lib/IBMPRO.prt .  

For whatever IBMPRO.prt has to do with it this file has always been there.

The copy is a single user version and I am the only person using the program.  For the record I have created another user name on the computer but its me too.

Can anybody help me get past these problems?

Thanks in advance!!
