Visual Studio 6.0 SP5 setup on Vista Beta 2 (5384)?

Does anyone know how to get around the MDAC check in the Service Pack 5 setup of Visual Studio 6.0?  For some reason it doesn't detect MDAC 2.5 or higher which it requires (even though Vista obviously has a later version - 6.0)  and the setup will not continue from that point. 
I've tried every registry key I could think of to trick it into thinking MDAC is installed.
Thanks
Ted.

Tutorial: How to install Visual Studio 6 With Service Pack 5 on Windows Vista RTM
- If you use Visual Studio.NET, do not install Visual Studio 2002, 2003, 2005 or 2008 first. If you do, this tutorial will not work. You must install them in this order...
1. Visual Studio 6.0
2. Service Pack 5
3. Visual Studio 2002, 2003, 2005 or 2008
- Right click on Setup.EXE from the Visual Studio 6 CD (MSVS98) and choose 'Run As Administrator' (take note it doesn't matter if your user is already an administrator you still must 'Run as Administrator')
- You may encounter some strange 'Yes/No' questions which you may not know the answers to that have not prompted you during Visual Studio Setup before. I don't remember what I clicked exactly, but I remember one of them said 'Do you want to overwrite your 'blah blah' settings?' and I clicked 'No'.
- You will need to reboot twice during installation
- Before running Service pack 5 setup, you must make modifications to the file 'sp598ent.stf' here's how to do that (note some of the spaces have been truncated, try to not remove the extra space in the stf file when modifying it. If you do, this will not work at all, and you'll get a "Setup Damaged" error)...
Step 1) Open C:\ServicePack5Dir\sp598ent.stf with 'Notepad.exe'
Step 2) Replace the following line
13 Group 28 36 38 29 30 32 26 27 14 25 16 17 20 18 19 15 39 21 22 24 23 43
-with-
13 Group 28 38 29 30 32 26 27 14 25 16 17 20 18 19 15 39 21 22 24 23 43
Step 3) Delete the following lines leaving only a carriage return where it was
36 Depend "27 ? : 37"
37 IsWin95 CustomAction "sp598ent.dll,CheckForMDAC"
Step 4) Save and close C:\ServicePack5Dir\sp598ent.stf
- Once you are done with that, you must run right click 'setupsp5.exe' and choose 'Run as Administrator' (if you do not run as administrator it will not work)
- Service Pack 5 Setup should work fine now.

  • Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008 - dbf

    Hello,
    I use both Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 on same PC. I can not work with dbf files (format foxpro2x, dbase IV) in VS 2005 and VS 2008.
    Q1. Work Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008 with database files - dbf (version foxpro2x, dbaseIV)? I get error -
    Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer
    Failed to load database information
    or with dbf files work only Full version of Crystal Reports?
    Q2. How re-install Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008. In setup Add/Remove features not exist Crystal Reports check box. I only Repair/reinstall all Visual Studio but after reinstall same error
    Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer
    Failed to load database information
    3. When I can open sample project with Crystal Reports which use Crystal Reports (dbf file) this error is displayed:
    Crystal Report Viever
    Failed to load database information
    Details: The database DLL "crdb_p2bxbse.dlll" could not be loaded.
    4. I reinstal Crystal Report in Visual Studio 2005 - same error
    5. I apply hotfix Crystal Reports for .NET 2005 - SP 1 - same error
    Thank You
    Ludek

    Hi Ludek,
    1-For dbase file to work you need have permission on database files for IIS as well as user accessing the database.
    2-For re-install you need to insert the CD of visual studio setup then do custom install and then try to choose crystal reports for re-installing
    3-The old viewer might cause the problem. In this case can you try connecting to a blank dbase file.
    and for such issues we have a special forum [here|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio;
    Thanks,
    Hitesh Mangtani

  • Error 1606 when installing NI 6.0 when Visual Studio 6.0 w/SP5 is installed on Win2k or XP

    Error does not occur if Visual Studio is NOT installed. Doesn't matter if MSOffice XP is on the machine or not. Happens on Win2k and XP.

    jcd,
    Error 1606 usually indicates that either a necessary key is missing from the registry or that something in the registry points to a file or directory that does not exist.
    Make sure that the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\6.0\Setup registry key contains a value named VsCommonDir that contains the path to the Common directory under your Visual Studio install directory.

  • Visual Studio 2013 Setup and Installation gets stuck at system restore point. what are the issues?, help me out!!!

    Visual Studio 2013 Setup and Installation gets stuck at system restore point. what are the issues?, help me out ASAP

    Hello nitinrathod29,
    There are some possible fixes for this issue.
    Please check the following thread:
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/47bc6990-00f2-4d85-b3f8-9de03c637f43/visual-studio-2013-update-2rc-stucks-on-creating-system-restore?forum=vssetup

    So here are them:
    1. Check if you have any software which may prevent the installer from running. For example, Windows Defender or any other software which may restrict your permissions.
    2. Just start the computer.
    3. Run the setup as admin.
    4. Check your UAC permissions.

  • Oracle 10g express, Windows Vista and Visual Studio 2005

    Hello,
    I have Oracel 10g express and Visual Studio 2005 professional, all installed on Windows Vista and working fine.
    I want to use the .net tools but I have had problems to install the wright version for this environment. Has anybody have this same configuration working? What are the downloads I need to have and the steps to have the .net oracle tools working ?

    It can be done:
    1) Download and install XE. Don't download the special "ODT for XE"
    2) Download and install ODAC 11g with ODT into a different directory than XE
    3) Copy over the TNSNAMES.ORA from the XE install into the new Oracle home.

  • The Visual Studio 2013 setup wizard said "Setup failed" many times when I UNINSTALL it.

    I hope somebody can help me... Sorry for my bad English.
    I had Visual Studio 2013 installed about two years ago. But I don't need it now and I want to uninstall it. However, the setup wizard said "Setup failed" after I clicked "uninstall" for a while. And it said:
    Microsoft Visual Studio 2013
    Fatal error during installation.
    Microsoft Advertising SDK for Windows Phone - ENU
    Package failed.

    I have tried repair it, but it said:
    Visual Studio Core Features - ENU
    Fatal error during installation.
    After repair, I clicked "uninstall" and it tipped me the same error.
    Thanks very much.

    Hello Sakura Chino,
    The Visual Studio installation will leave some components on your OS for repair/uninstall. The problem seems related to this. If you can find the installer which you used to install Visual Studio 2013, then please use it to repair and uninstall. It
    will fix problems on your OS so please don't try to uninstall from control panel. 
    If you cannot find the source installer, please download the same version of Visual Studio 2013 ISO from here:
    https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs.aspx
    Then verify it's hash value by refer to the following page:
    https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/visual-studio-2013-iso-sha1-vs
    After that, you can use that installer to repair then uninstall.
    If you still meet any problem, please use the following tool to fix:
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/mats/program_install_and_uninstall
    It is for Visual Studio 2010 or previous versoin, but some customers fixed problems by using this tool. I think you can also have a try on it.

  • How to download setup file for visual studio community?

    i want to download a copy of visual studio community but web based installation system taking too much time.....i have to continuously run my computer for at least 2 days to completely install the package.....where can i get the setup file which can be
    downloaded like any other file from internet?

    Your other option would be to download the ISO, which will also take a long time on a slow Internet connection. Once you have the ISO, you can check the SHA-1 to confirm that you got a valid download. Then, you can install locally much faster than with the
    web installer over your connection.
    You can get the ISO here: http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9863609

    Hi Luis,
    It looks like you are working with a debug build:
    'prueba2_oci.exe': Loaded 'C:\Users\Usser3\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\prueba2_oci\Debug\prueba2_oci.exe', Symbols loaded. <=== I see Debug in the path, so this looks like a debug build.
    But then further down in your output I see this:
    'prueba2_oci.exe': Loaded 'C:\instantclient_11_1\vc9\oraocci11.dll' <=== This is the release build of OCCI dll not the debug build.
    You appear to be mixing debug and release libraries which will not work correctly.
    This is in the following step in the blog post:
    "Expand Configuration Properties node, expand Linker node, select Input item, enter "oraocci11d.lib" for a debug build or "oraocci11.lib" for a release build."
    If you are creating a debug build you need to use oraocci11d.lib as input to the linker.
    You use oraocci11.lib as input to the linker for the release build.
    For your reference, this is what you should see in the output window in Visual Studio for the debug execution:

  • Installing WIX Toolset after Visual Studio 2013 setup corrupts Visual Studio

    Hi,
    Installing Wix toolset Version 3.8 seems to corrupt the Visual Studio installation. After installing Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 7 x64, I install the WIX toolset version 3.8 (latest stable release). After this VS cannot be opened.
    Any others on the forum that can confirm this as an issue with WiX 3.8, or anyone know a solution for this problem?
    SWEDEV

    Hello SWEDEV,
    I've just checked this link
    https://wix.codeplex.com/releases/view/115492 and find the following:
    Major features of WiX v3.8 are:
    Support for Visual Studio 2013 in Votive and the WiX native libraries. (Bob Arnson and Rob Mensching)
    Bootstrapper application functions to extend WixStandardBootstrapperApplication. (Neil Sleightholm
    It seems it WiX v3.8 is supported on Visual Studio 2013. In my mind, the issue may due to some corrupt setting or extensions on your Visual Studio.
    Please try some common steps below to see if your issue can be fixed:
    Please open an administrative CMD window and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE and run these commands:
    1.devenv.exe /safemode
    2.devenv.exe /resetskippkgs
    3.devenv.exe /installvstemplates
    4.devenv.exe /resetsettings
    5.devenv.exe /resetuserdata
    Note that the above steps are unrelated and so checking if your issue has been resolved, after every step may help you save time on steps that were not required!
    Please rename these 2 registry keys under the registry editor:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0_Config
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0
    By the way, have you ever tried to repair Visual Stuido before? If you haven't, please try it.

  • XMP Toolkit & Visual Studio 6.0

    Hi!
    I'm a software developper from Germany and got started into XMP a couple of days ago. With Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, everything works fine (I compiled the sources and received the lib files as static libraries which I can use for my code).
    Does it also work with Visual Studio 6.0? I tried it, but a "LNK1196: invalid or corrupt import object: unknown version" error is shown then, I suppose you can't use lib files created in 2005 for 6.0. Has anybody successfully used the XMP Toolkit on this version?
    Thanks.

    Tutorial: How to install Visual Studio 6 With Service Pack 5 on Windows Vista RTM
    - If you use Visual Studio.NET, do not install Visual Studio 2002, 2003, 2005 or 2008 first. If you do, this tutorial will not work. You must install them in this order...
    1. Visual Studio 6.0
    2. Service Pack 5
    3. Visual Studio 2002, 2003, 2005 or 2008
    - Right click on Setup.EXE from the Visual Studio 6 CD (MSVS98) and choose 'Run As Administrator' (take note it doesn't matter if your user is already an administrator you still must 'Run as Administrator')
    - You may encounter some strange 'Yes/No' questions which you may not know the answers to that have not prompted you during Visual Studio Setup before. I don't remember what I clicked exactly, but I remember one of them said 'Do you want to overwrite your 'blah blah' settings?' and I clicked 'No'.
    - You will need to reboot twice during installation
    - Before running Service pack 5 setup, you must make modifications to the file 'sp598ent.stf' here's how to do that (note some of the spaces have been truncated, try to not remove the extra space in the stf file when modifying it. If you do, this will not work at all, and you'll get a "Setup Damaged" error)...
    Step 1) Open C:\ServicePack5Dir\sp598ent.stf with 'Notepad.exe'
    Step 2) Replace the following line
    13 Group 28 36 38 29 30 32 26 27 14 25 16 17 20 18 19 15 39 21 22 24 23 43
    -with-
    13 Group 28 38 29 30 32 26 27 14 25 16 17 20 18 19 15 39 21 22 24 23 43
    Step 3) Delete the following lines leaving only a carriage return where it was
    36 Depend "27 ? : 37"
    37 IsWin95 CustomAction "sp598ent.dll,CheckForMDAC"
    Step 4) Save and close C:\ServicePack5Dir\sp598ent.stf
    - Once you are done with that, you must run right click 'setupsp5.exe' and choose 'Run as Administrator' (if you do not run as administrator it will not work)
    - Service Pack 5 Setup should work fine now.

  • Please install Visual Studio 2005 before install Acrobat 9 Plugin Wizard

    Hi,
    I have Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition installed on my computer. I keep get error message said "Please install Visual Studio 2005 before install Acrobat 9 Plugin Wizard" when I installed Visual Studio App Wizard  Acro9PIWizInstaller.msi.
    Any idea?
    Thanks,
    Thai

    Lol
    Do you take me as a joker ?
    *Of course I have contacted the micorsoft support first !*
    *They ask me to try to install the .net framework 3.5, to see if the setup wasn't define as XP compatible.*
    *Then they don't have answer yet and asked me to contact Toshiba support (funny no ?)*
    Also If you look at the microsoft support forum the only installation pbm with Visual Studio with Vista is toshiba laptop satelitte related
    Ok now, as it's my job, here is what I think :
    Maybe the laptop was first setup with XP and maybe Tshiba reseler did install Vista on it as a migration !
    First case
    So to be absolutly sure it wasn't the case I did a format of my HDD and reinstalled vista from the Toshiba Crash and recovery CD
    Second case
    The problem remain, so it is possible that this Recovery CD and/or any other Toshiba product create this problem !!!!
    Note that the C# or J# express just work fine, it's only the Visual Studio 2008 tem suite and pro

  • How do I use Qt and OpenGL with Visual Studio

    Hi! I mainly want to program in C++ and I want to use Qt and OpenGL with Visual Studio.
    I am currently revising C++ and later on i am going to start reading Qt and OpenGL. I have a background of
    Embedded firmware design(C and Assembly).
    The Visual Studio Version I have is 2013 ultimate. How do I use Qt and OpenGL with Visual Studio?
    Thanks

    Hi ClassicalGuitar,
    The forum supports VS setup and installation. And your issue is not about the forum. I will move the thread to off-topic forum. Thanks for your understanding.

  • '{' Key not working with Apple Keyboard in Windows & Visual Studio

    Good morning,
    I've been bugged by this forever now and tried it with Windows XP, Vista and 7 now on my macPro & (the latest version of) Bootcamp: I can type the { and } brackets just fine in most windows apps (e.g. start > run etc), but in visual studio, for some reason the 'ctrl + alt + 7' (for the '{') does result in the whole line being commented with // instead of the expected opening '{'. 'ctrl + alt + 0' ('}') does however work just fine.
    Now I am really not sure why this is happening, but it's the same for VS2008 and the VS2010 beta and developing in C# without a proper '{' combo is somewhat.. difficult
    Has anyone ever come across the same behavior and knows what to do?
    Cheers and thanks,
    -J

    Does it happen with another KB?
    If only this KB then the is either dirty or faulty. Maybe this will help

  • Syntax highlighting not working with label on if statement in fortran in Visual studio 2010

    I am having a difficult time in figuring out the syntax highlighting in Visual studio. I am using fortran code and there are labels in if statements as follows: 
                if_2003: IF (FRAC_PBED(NNSED,L).LT.0.0.AND.
         +                   FRAC_PBED(NNSED,L).GT.SMALL_NEG_NO) THEN
                  FRAC_PBED(NNSED,L) = 0.0
           TSED_PBED(1,NNSED,L) = 0.0
         END IF if_2003
    So the problem I am having is when I click on the `if` next to label `if_2003`, then I cannot use `CTRL + ]` to move to the ending `if`. If there is no label before `if`, then the shortcut is working fine. I don't know what I could do so that it would start
    behaving as it is supposed to. 
    In the contrary, when I have do loop as follows: 
        do_410: DO NNSED=1,NSTD
             D50AVG(L) = D50AVG(L) + 
             +                 FRAC_ALAY_SURF(NNSED,L)*D50(NNSED)/10000.  ! BASED ON BED COMPOSITION
        C
             TSED_ALAY_SURF(2,NNSED,L)=TSED_ALAY_SURF(1,NNSED,L)
             TSED_ALAY_BUFF(2,NNSED,L)=TSED_ALAY_BUFF(1,NNSED,L)
             TSED_PBED(2,NNSED,L)=TSED_PBED(1,NNSED,L)
                  END DO do_410
    I can move to the end/start of `do` loop using the keyboard shortcut `CTRL + ]`. Any suggestions is appreciated.

    Hello Jdbaba,
    Based on my research, your post is related to use fortran in Visual Studio:https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-math-kernel-library-intel-mkl-for-windows-build-intel-mkl-program-with-intel-fortran-in-microsoft-visual-studio This
    technology is provided by Intel. So the question should be consulted on Intel fortran related forum. Not Visual Studio Setup forum, setup forum is about install/uninstall Visual Studio.
    Best regards,  
    Barry
