If you've installed ver 4.xx, you might have to go into your registry 
files and delete everything to do with the older version.  Some files 
are called in very unusual places all over the registry.  That's a real 
pain in the tush, and other vital parts of one's anatomy.

You might be better off trying to install on another computer, perhaps 
one running Win98SE.  Is that possible?  We keep an old computer here 
just for that purpose when necessary.

The alternative would be to just re-write the code for updated 
software.  A pain, but sometimes the lesser of 2 evils when we consider 
the time involved.

Do you have the assembly level files?  Can you disassemble those?  I 
don't write code in C, nor have I ever needed to use a disassembler, but 
isn't that what those are for?  If you have the assembly files, the 
S1200 has 1K of program memory so it wouldn't be that big a deal to 
write the code all over again anyway.  Would it?

Life can sometimes be hell if we do updates.  I lost about 1200 dollars 
(US) worth of e-books with an "upgrade" a few years ago...and then got 
then to add insult to injury, charged 50 bucks more to be told there was 
nothing they could do to help.  Some of the books were no longer available.
