Doesn't work with windows 7 x86

Postby KayDee » Sun Mar 21, 2010 11:22 am

Hello

I bought a new computer with windows 7 and i can't use invision anymore. I attempt to run mIRC with invision, but when it opens up it's just mIRC without invision.
I saw a message with the same probleme on this forum but the person named "Activeman" found a 'fix' by restarting windows 7 after installing the latest update. It doesn't work for me. mIRC still opens up alone...
Did i forgot to do something ? I installed Invision 3.1.2 (March '10) (Full Bundle)

Thank you for your help :)

Make sure you install to a location such as c:\Invision\. Also, make sure that if you are installing to a location that has mIRC installed already, that you choose to overwrite all files. Do not install mIRC on top of Invision. Invision needs to be installed on top of mIRC (or as a new folder without mIRC installed if using the full install version).
You can find me at #Invision on irc.irchighway.net or #OldGames on irc.undernet.org if you need me for anything.

Do this...

Uninstall mirc and invision.

Install newest mirc to C:/invision

Once installed move mirc.exe from the mirc folder and place it in the invision folder so it's path is
C:/invision/mirc.exe

Install invision use the invision only option to C:/invision

start mirc

Enjoy.

This worked for me on a windows 7 ultimate 64 it machine, sure it will work for you.

Please don't revive old threads. Also, all help for installing Invision is included in a sticky.
