Works Setup Appears to Hang While Updating Your System (108301)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q108301 SUMMARY
After the Setup program is done copying files to the hard disk drive, it
displays the following message:
Setup is updating your system...
Meanwhile, there is no feedback to let you know that Setup is actually
making any progress. You will see the hourglass and the hard drive
light will flash intermittently. This process can take several minutes,
leading you to believe that the system has stopped responding (hung).
As long as the hard drive light is flashing intermittently, your system
is still being updated. Once it is completed, you will receive a
message stating that Setup has finished updating your system.
MORE INFORMATION
This portion of the Setup program is writing approximately 300 lines to
the Registration database and it is modifying the WIN.INI,
MSWORKS3.INI, and ARTGALRY.INI files. In some cases, Setup is also
adding SHARE.EXE to the AUTOEXEC.BAT or CONFIG.SYS files.
