Oh yip, I think I remember what to do.

Start menu->Run->Regedit

Go Edit Menu->Find and search for "908y4q32tn"
Set this property to "no_crash", and it should fix it.

If not, try variations on "908y4q32tn" until it works.

What XP version (SP1, SP2)? What application(s) crash? Any other details? Do normal applications work? Screenie?

Some more details would help. ;)

Yeah that usually works for me, too. :)

CmrDrv, do you know what kind of setup program it is? Who's the vendor, what's the version, etc?

I believe tricksy doogle was making use of an elaborate rhetorical device known as sarcasm.

No I meant, what kind of SETUP program is it? Is it InstallShield? WISE? Nullsoft? You said that all your setup programs are crashing.

Have you scanned for viruses, at all? Setup programs store a lot of info in their executables, and if anything disrupts the integrity of the file (such as a virus) they'll usually error out.

Ha, I can just imagine MS doing something like that though... You're just looking around the registry, and... hey! Why is this value "RunWindows" set to "do_Crash" ?

Yeah sorry, I was kinda mean. I just don't like those "I get error 0x976ABDE, what's the exact and easy cure?"

I guess I ruined christmas.

Ahhh... that's probably it. It's probably an older program written for Win9x. Try running the setup app in "compatibility mode" for windows 95 or 98. sorry I don't know the exact procedure for doing so, I'm in linux right now.

VS.NET's error lookup tool returns 'Error not found' for 0xc0000135, but does say "An attempt was made to use a JOIN or SUBST command on a drive that has already been substituted" for 135. That's probably not the error you want though.

So it's probably something specific to the application you're trying to run (which you still haven't given us the name of). We'll help you if you cooperate and give us some actual information instead of just saying "I get this error, using XPSP2, what's wrong, plz help help I need it."
