| 350883 | 2005-04-30 22:45:00 | I have a second computer whitch is a PIII running 98SE. This runs my Priport printing press and the only installation drivers available are specifically for 95/98 hence the requirement for an older OS. However, when I install a programme (anything), when the setup starts and loads the Install Shield Wizard, as they do, I get the box showing " _delis. This program(sic) has performed an illegal operation... well, you know the rest. The details show: "_DELIS caused a general protection fault" and refers to _ISDEL.exe. Can anyone throw some light on what all this is and how to correct/erradicate it. I simply delete the popup and carry on with installation and things seem to work OK. My suspicion is that it is something to do with the uninstall info collected for the "Settings-uninstalling" operation, but that is only an educated? guess. I have, just prior to this, reformatted the C Drive and reinstalled the OS, so it is not caused by any clag or fault that has been lurking. Looking forward to the feed-back. Ken |

| 350885 | 2005-05-01 06:55:00 | That's interesting, Godfather, specifically as I don't have a modem or internet attached to this machine and therefore have no antivirus programme running. Where to from here? Is the Install shield part of Windows per se or an integral part of each programme as it installs? Cheers, Ken |

| 350887 | 2005-05-01 08:07:00 | Where it says, "_delis caused a general protection fault in module _isdel . exe" it is probably referring to an incomplete wiping of all files, directories and most importantly, Registry entries .

| 350888 | 2005-05-01 23:03:00 | Thank you Tweak'e I have installed IE6 from my utility disk. Will wait and see what happens. Will download the other file for future use. The PIII has a modem installed and I can connect it to the net but prefer to use the main machine for my emails ad web use. Regards, Ken |
