? Beta upgrade: question & suggestion
« on: December 14, 2005, 11:16:52 am »

Question:

I've got MC 11 (a copy I don't use) aboard another PC downstairs that is connected to the Internet, though I want to upgrade my MC 11 media server, located upstairs, that is not connected. What's the best way to do this?

Background:

While attempting to install a MC 11.x beta directly over MC 11 on my media server, I ran into a download error last night and had to abort. The failed installation broke the working installation, requiring me to rerun Setup for the regular MC 11 installation.

Suggestion:

Couldn't subsequent Setup routines check for the existence of a live Internet connection before proceeding? Nowhere is there a warning that Internet connectivity is a requirement for successful installtion.

WM10 is not the same as WMP10.

I don't believe so...

I'm running W2K and had previously run wmfdist90.exe per forum installtion instructions.

Will try again with latest MC beta and see what happens...
