From: Buffalo on 25 Mar 2010 10:40 I tried upgrading from the free version 9 to the new 10 version and received a message stating that "Entry Point not Found" in the title and that message body started out with "Procedure Entry Point?_Xbad(a)trl.................." goes on quite a bit. I am using Win2000Pro SP4 and updated on the MS site. Anyone else having problems installing the new 10 free version? I even tried uninstalling and installing in Safe Mode. Same problem when the reboot is finished. Buffalo

I also tried the Registry Cleaner from Avira in Normal Mode and deleted all it found and then rebooted and tried to install 10 again. Same error. I will try the Avira Forum as I am still registered there. I will review your link and see if I missed anything. If anyone has another suggestion, please reply. Thanks, Buffalo PS:Actual msg Avcenter.exe - Entry Point Not Found The procedure entry point?_Xbad(a)tr1@std@@YAX4error_type(a)regex_constants@12@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library MSVCP90.dll

Perhaps Buffalo should ask them - and have them clear up the info on the mirror sites. -- -bts -Four wheels carry the body; two wheels move the soul

According to the Avira site: http://www.avira.com/en/products/avira_antivir_premium_3.html Win2000,SP4 and Update Rollup 1 is supported. I have that. I think I may just try to find the ver 9 and try it until I can get this solved. Thanks Buffalo |
