cdsetup.exe file missing
I am getting two error messages when I start my computer
with Windows 98 installed. The first is, 'Cannot find the file cdsetup.exe or one of its components. Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all libraries are available. The second is, Could not load or run 'cdsetup.exe' specified in the win.ini file. Make sure the file exists on your computer or remove the reference to it in the win.ini file. How do I correct this problem? I installed a CD burner and after the installation I got these two messages on re starting the computer and ever since. HELP PLEASE! |

I installed a CD burner and after the installation I got these two messages on re starting the computer and ever since. HELP PLEASE! 1. When we get a question like this, we also need to know whether the PC runs OK after the error message. We assume yours runs OK. 2. It is easy to guess CDSETUP was part of the installation process for your CD burner i.e. was correctly erased when the installation finished. But WIN.INI (or another startup file) wrote a line calling this file. All you need to do is Start / Run / SYSEDIT.EXE look in WINI for the string CDSETUP and when you find it type a semicolon ; at the left end of the line. Then save the file and reboot. 2b. There are other places this file call may have been written. Post your results back here. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) |

cdsetup.exe file missing
Click Start Run, type: win.ini and click OK.
See if there is an entry: run=cdsetup.exe or load=cdsetup.exe If there is, edit the cdsetup.exe portion of the line out, so that it shows: run= or load= Save the changes and exit.
