Title: Similar prob with the DL
Post by: llyr on August 17, 2001, 10:40:00 PM
I've been able to DL the ah1073 executable, but get a dos mode error message thus,

"This prog cannot be run in DOS mode"

Interesting in that the exe file was double clicked in Windoze!

EPOX 8KTA3 mobo/AMD 1.133Mhz/512Mb PC 133 SDRam, GeForce2 GTS,nVidia driver ver 8.03, DirectX 8

Any ideas?  :confused: null (http://null)null

Hi, llyr!  Awrrroooooooooooooo!!  :cool:

I finally got the d/l to work by NOT using the mirror site.  Just keep trying to d/l the entire file off of hitechcreations' server...it really should work.  

Apparently, the file at the mirror site is corrupted.

The response to my tech support request follows-a prompt response was rec'd however it did not address the primary prob of the exe running, and the "can't run in DOS mode" error that results.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Hi,

I apologize for your problem.  We've never put much in the help on downloads
as that's never really been a problem.  I've moved the file to a different
download
server, but I'm afraid it's going to require another download on your part.
I'm really sorry for the extra trouble on your part and hope you'll find
it worthwhile.
