Winstone 94 Err Msg: An Error Has Occurred in Your Program... (120356)

SYMPTOMS

When you run the benchmark program Winstone 94, it reports the following error during the WordPerfect tests:

WPWINFIL

An error has occurred in your program. To keep working anyway, click ignore and save your work in a new file. To quit this program, click Close. You will lose information you entered since your last save.

Clicking Close results in another error message:

This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. If the problem persists contact the program vendor.

Choosing to shut down causes the system to stop responding (hang). You must turn off the computer and then restart it.

CAUSE

During tests, these errors occur when Winstone replaces the Windows 95 Hppcl.drv and Unidrv.dll files with older Windows 3.1 versions of these files.

RESOLUTION

Copy the Hppcl.drv and Unidrv.dll files from the Windows 95 System folder to the Winstone\Windows\System folder.

For information about how to copy a file, click Start, click Help, click the Index tab, type copying, and then double-click the "Copying files" topic.
