29. I get an ISINST30 error when trying to install the program on Windows 95/98/ME.
Applies to: Older versions of our software (for example, some PowerTracks Pro Audio 5 and older Pianist Performance installers).
This occurs because of an incompatibility with the InstallShield installer and a currently running program. You can use one of the following methods to work around the problem:
Method 1
- Press CTRL+ALT+DEL once. This should open the Close Program window.
- Select all programs (except systray and explorer) one at a time and press [End Task].
- Certain programs may display "Program not responding". Is so, just click the [End Task] button in the pop-up dialog.
- Try to install the program.
- Restart your computer.
Method 2
- Copy the CD contents into a directory on your hard drive.
- Restart your computer in safe mode (Usually done by pressing F8 repeatedly as you reboot your computer).
- Run the Install Program from the temporary directory you created on the hard drive.
- Re-start your computer.
- Delete the temporary CD directory you installed the product from.
Method 3
- Restart your computer while pressing F8 repeatedly.
- Choose "Safe Mode with CD-ROM Support". (This choice may not exist on all systems.)
- Install the program from the CD.
