Well thanks, Mike.  Yep, it's "official"! ha ha. I don't know why if I try
to install it once and it doesn't work, why I think if I try it a few more
times it will!! ha ha. I think before I chuck it out the window I'll try
your suggestion. If it doesn't work, I'll be sure to give everyone my
address and let them know the "chucking time". It does work great for the
games though...

Thanks!

Chris

Hi Chris, as long as it's "official" that you are frustrated, I can't be
giving you this information if it not official you realize.

Here is what Alan Chao put on the code400 newsgroup in Oct. last year.  I
have not tried it (don't have XP).  Now, if you truly are going to toss
the new machine out the window let me know where and when and I'll be
there to catch it -- I'm sure that it would run Win98SE for games just
fine :-)

Hi,
First of all, WDT 5.1 was released before XP is available.
The following is a set of instructions to guide you thru' installing WDT
5.1
onto XP, but please note that some functions of the product may not work
with XP.

Here are the instructions to install V5R1M0 on WinXP.
1. Set the registry key.
       [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IBM\WDT400\Transient]
       "InstallSrcpath"="G:"
       Replace "G:" with where the source you install from(your CD drive
letter).

2.  Run install\msisetup.exe  (in CD1)
3.  Run install\bin\v51setup.exe (in CD1)

Kind regards,

Mike

Hi all,

I hope someone else has encountered this problem and has a work around for
it.  I just bought a new PC with XP (XP Home). I'm trying to install the
entire Websphere Dev Tools for iSeries (V5.1) and I can't do it! Even
though
I AM a user with sys admin authority it tells me that I need to sign on
with
sys admin authority to install the product. Does anyone have any
suggestions
short of, "Throw it out the window and go back to your old PC!" :-)


Thanks,
