Author Topic:   Unable to install smac :( plz help

Sealance posted 02-26-99 08:46 AM ET
I get the error message "Unable to move data -113"
and the autorun.exe doesn't work.
I have a AMD K6-2 333, 32Mb RAM, Mystique220.
The same CD works fine on Dad's Cyrix and our old Pentium 100.
I previously had the W95.CIH.1075 virus rampaging around my PC, but it has been removed, and I've reinstalled Win98 several times....
Please help

The problem is you're running dos drivers for your CD-Rom instead of 32-bit win95 drivers. You can check by right-clicking on the my computer icon, selecting properties and then performance. It will say "compatibility mode" if I'm right. If so, contact your manufacturer about getting 32-bit win95 drivers for your cd-rom installed. A backup option is to just copy the contents of the \programs folder to a folder on the HD and run terran.exe.

Thanx
I checked the units available on my PC, and it gave no reference to my CD-Rom. Can this be solved by reinstalling Win98 (again..)?
