[Ifeffit] Fwd: athena - Win 98 and Win NT

[Bruce Ravel]

Brad,

I am passing this along to the mailing list to see if anyone else has
any better wisdom for you.  But I'll take a stab.

Win98:  did you  put "SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /E:4096 /P" into
        `config.sys', as the Win98 instructions on my and Matt's web
        sites suggest?  Otherwise I am not familiar enough with Win98
        to provide better guidance.

WinNT:  I have never seen the message you described and don't quite
        know what it means.  What happens on NT if you install the
        stuff in to C:\Program Files\ rather than onto the F: disk?
        Again, I am not very familiar with NT (I've never actually
        haad it on a machine that I own.)

Win2K:  Whew!  Using this seems like the path of least resistance.

Anyone else have any wisdom?

B

Hi,
We took some XAFS data a week ago at the APS.  I installed athena to look
at the data.  Here is my report:

1.  installed on Win 98:  athena runs, but says "Error: Runtime exception"
in the DOS window.  And then a Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime library box
says:  Runtime Error!  Program c:\ifeffit\grwnd.exe  abnormal program
termination.

2.  installed on WinNT 4.0:  in the DOS window it says:
F:\PROGRA~1\Ifeffit>athena
Can't load
'C:\TEMP\athena\{62B3D752-A76A-4C15-B621-8205B2665DBC}\/auto/Ifeffit/
Ifeffit.dll' for module Ifeffit: load_file:The paging file is too small
for this
 operation to complete at DynaLoader.pm line 206.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at athena line 59.

3.  windows 2000 installation works just fine.

Should I just use the win 2000 installation, or is there a simple fix for
the other two?
Thanks,
Brad Lindseth
