Debug Kit Won't Install
« on: February 12, 2003, 06:42:00 PM »
Hey. I downloaded the XDK and tried to install it, but I got two error messages that read "The XBOX_XDK_JUNE2002_BUILD4627.EXE file is linked o mssing export KERNAL32.DLL:GetFileSizeEx" and "A device attached to the system is not functioning" I tried to indtall thi file on a different computer, and I got the same problem. I then re-downloaded the XDK from a different source and tried to install it, with the same results. I don't have the C++professional editon installed yet, just the regular edition. I have searched on this topic with no helpful results. Can anyone help?

Are you using Windows 2000 or XP?

:::sigh:::

Just today, I was reading a recent issue of 3D World where a reader was very upset that a full version of Houdini 3D included with an earlier issue didn't work with his Windows ME machine.

Of course, nobody does serious 3D work on anything less than a Windows NT machine.

The same can be said of development work, particularly Xbox development.

It's OK, really, go ahead and upgrade to a real OS (Win2000). There is no reason, other than the burning desire to run "Megarace", to run a 'toy' operating system in the Win9xME family.  wink.gif

Win2k runs all the windows games, and will give you much less grif in the long run.

I havn't ever run into any problems with it, but no problem, as I'm about to upgrade to XP.

Sounds like it could work. I'm upgrading to XP within the next 2 weeks, so I'll just have to wait.
