Error 1904. Module (...path\DiskWriter.dll) failed to register.
HRESULT -2147221160. Contact your support personnel.

This results with, so far as I can tell, all the .dll files in the VDMsound package. I'm attempting to install 2.0.4 to a clean directory.

I'm running a P3 ~600 on an old Intel 440BX board with 192 mb of RAM. Windows 2000, SP2.

Running dosdrv after the install kicks out with the following message:

"Instantiation - COM Error"
Unable to instantiate emulation module 'VDMServicesProvider"
[memory address] - Invalid class string (D:\path\VDMS.ini:66)

Then another one of these, looks like one each for all the .dlls that didn't get registered at first.

Anybody got any clues?

Just a stab in the dark, but maybe you weren't logged in as someone with administrator access when you installed VDMSound?

VLAD! TOLD YOU YOU BROKE IT! (inside joke.)

Yes, it’s my fault.

I am logged in as an administrator when I attempt to install...

Thanks for the idea, though.
