This article was previously published under Q102626 SYMPTOMS
Video presentations in Presents version 1.4 on a MIPS R4000 computer
return the message "Error in reading disk," the error code
047:000:000, and then fail completely.
During testing on RISC-based computers, error messages were received
consistently whenever a presentation was run. In one test, Presents
returned to its window after the first frame was displayed and
generated an error message stating that the video presentation could
not get a system timer and that it would have to be run manually.
CAUSE
On RISC-based computers, the application destroys the full-screen
window used for presentations.
WORKAROUND
If you switch to VGA graphics, you do not receive the error message.
The presentation is recorded in a much smaller VIDPRES.CPV file (168K
versus 1800K) and plays back correctly.
This was tested under Windows 3.1 and Windows NT configured for VGA on
x86-based computers. No error messages were generated.
RESOLUTION
To prevent these errors, upgrade to Presents version 1.5.
