Windows 2000 compatibility

Hi,

when I try to register the StarBurnX DLL on Win2000, RegSvr32 fails with exit code 0x3. Is it no longer compatible to Win2000 or does some specific runtime have to be installed before?

Regards,
Flo

I don't think we do as it's not supported by MS development tools for years. You can either skip using Win2K as supported system or keep two versions of StarBurn (one with less features for old version in legacy mode and other for post 2K/XP ones). We try to keep as much backward compatibility as possible but it's not easy...

Well, earlier versions of StarBurn still worked (I believe from last year or so), so did you make some specific changes that cause is not to work anymore? If you say that Win2000 is no longer supported, I can probably live with that, but if there are just some dependencies missing that could be added to my installer, I would rather do that.

Hello,

Could you try to set DependsWalker utility on StarBurnX12.dll in order to identify missed dependencies!

Regards,

Dmitry

Hello,

Why not, we will change the "Platform Toolset" to vc90 ( a specially for you

)

I will try to build the new StarBurnX build today!

Regards,

Dmitry

I can wait, if you keep me a bit updated about your schedule. I keep asking if I don't get any news for a couple of weeks

flöle,

If you continue using Windows 2000 then you should definitely try the unofficial kernel (http://bristols.zxq.net/windows2000/updates/#kb2393802). It adds many new APIs and also allows you to run applications compiled in VS 2010.
