Marius Fett Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I don't mean your account. I mean the Administrator account that comes with a Windows XP machine. Log in with the username Administrator, and no password. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marius Fett Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Yeah, that's what I mean. Well, if it's not working, as I said before, ask in our Tech Forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChAiNz.2da Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Well, if it's not working, as I said before, ask in our Tech Forum. Please don't, at least not our Workbench forums. I assume _EW_ err.. MF means the General Tech Discussion forums? If that's the case, then yes you could try your luck there.. however Holowan is an appropriate forum for general Gmax questions. EDIT:Question...is there anyway i can manualy get the zipped programs from the gmax installer from a progrma like winRAR to manually install the program or preform a desktop install? Manual installation isn't possible.. it has to run through the installer (.exe). Have you tried to re-download the file and install? http://www.turbosquid.com/gmax Also, check to see if the computer "thinks" gmax is already installed. Check your Add/Remove Programs to make sure there isn't any gmax entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might want to see if that helps: http://simple-pc-help.com/support/error_1772.html or this one: http://free.pc-error-repair.org/error/library/Error-1772.html Apparently it's caused by a broken system registry (why I wanted you to see if there was a ghost install of gmax in Add/Remove) If there is a ghost install, use this tool to clean it up and try again: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=290301 @ChAiNz: The General Tech Forum was what I meant.

EnderWiggin Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Please don't, at least not our Workbench forums. I assume _EW_ means the General Tech Discussion forums? I didn't mean either _EW_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChAiNz.2da Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I didn't mean either _EW_ hehe me either..and normally would close one of them. I'd rather the thread stay here, but since I don't know if all the General Tech regulars visit Holowan, it doesn't hurt to have a "beacon" post Some smart guys/gals roam the Tech Thread so it's a good post to stick in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
