:
: I am hoping the there is some one that can help me here, as i would like to test an alternative front-end to ArcadeOS.

: I have downloaded the letest version of MameWah (0.893). When installing, I get the following message:

: 'An error occured while registering the file 'c:\windows\system\gvbox.ocx''

: I get the option to Abort, Reentry or Ignore. The only option the allows we to preceed is Ignore.

: Once the installation is finnished, and I run MameWah, I get the following error which cancels ManeWah from running. Error is:

: 'Component 'gvbox.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid'.

Try this:

Find out where the gvbox.ocx file is located (let's assume c:\here\gvbox.ocx for this example).

Go to The start bar, hit File, Run, and type in:

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\Regsvr32.exe c:\here\gvbox.ocx

where c:\here\gvbox.ocx is replaced with the actual file location.

Hopefully you'll get a registration succeeded message, and be able to run the program...

Good Luck!!

: Has some one had this problem before?

: What would be the solution to get MameWah running?

: (Note: after the first instalation I had deleted the file gvbox.ocx, and re-tried the installation again, but got the same problem. I run win98 on a P133.)

: Any sugestions would me kindly appreciated.
