Yes, I'm trying to run it under my user account which is setup as an adminstrator.

I get the error when launching. The install seems to go just fine. It doesn't report any errors during install. I don't understand why the X applet in control panel can't seem to update the registry. My user account has administrative rights.???

Both are installed and up to date. They were even grayed out in the install menu of the demo. I did try manually installing them again per the readme file on the demo disc. Unfortunately that didn't work either. Thanks for the quick response!

Hello all, This is my first post to the forum as you can see. (I apologise in advance for the length!) I will be training on X next week and one of my co-workers gave me the X demo to install on my computer. I wanted to install it on my laptop just to get familliar with it and to play with after the class. I cannot seem to get it to install properly though. It repeatedly comes up with an error on load saying it cannot find MCBitmap.ocx and McLstctl.ocx. Both of these files are installed in the system32 directory under windows. I searched the forum to see if anyone else had this issue and found a possible solution was to unregister and re-register the files using the X control panel applet. When I tried this, the applet reported that it could not open the registry. I am running XP Home on my laptop and could not find any info as to whether or not I can run the demo under this OS. My login has full adminstrator rights. I even tried booting safe mode to run the X applet (this is the only way to get pure admin mode on XP Home) and got the same error. I have un-installed and re-installed the demo. I even tried manually registering the two files with regsvr32 and still have the same problem. Are there registry entries I can manually make with regedit? Does anyone have a suggestion? Am I just Out of luck? Thanks in advance for your help, Rick
