installation error

[zahman]

i downloaded vs x3 today. The problem im having is that when i try to install i get the following error message :-
>Setup\setup.cpp(140)
PAPP
PVendor
PGUID
$
@windows xp Sevice pack3 (2600)
I.E version 8.0.6001.18702

Now im no computer expert and havent got a clue what this means. I did notice that the file size on the corel website was 1.14gb but the file size downloaded was 95.4mb, dont know if this means anything.

Any help would be graetully received.

It looks like it's saying that you need WinXP with Service Pack 3. Is your Windows updated to the latest Service Pack? It could very well be that you didn't get the full file downloaded, and it is missing some things. I know it's real pain to download files of any size from Corel. Their servers just don't allow for much download speed. They need to throttle it up for these very large files. We should be able to use as much download speed as the internet service we subscribe to permits. You might try downloading it again.

Are you downloading the trial version or have you purchased it? If it's the trial version, the file size may not be the same as the full version. They do that to help with downloading, and they just want to wet your taste buds with the trial..

If the file you downloaded is only 95.4 MB you certainly did not get the whole file. I checked my download file for VS X3 and it shows to be 611Mb. I would try to download the file again.

Hello zahman,

I'm Abiel from Corel Support. To make sure that you completely download the program, you can directly download the VS X3 from this link. To make sure that you complete the download, make sure that the file size is approx 1.2 GB.
