Is it possible to load the latest Programming Editor on a Win 98 computer? The Picaxe web site suggests that it is (and can even be run under Win 95) but I've been unsuccessful with Win 98.
I've run the Microsoft Installer Update (instmsia.exe) and then installed Bas805.exe which appeared to go OK but when I run it I get error 339. Again, the web site suggests that I run vcredist_x86.exe to overcome that problem but I get an error that this installation can't be installed by the windows installer and suggests that I install a Windows service pack that contains a newer version of the Windows Installer service. Looking at the Microsoft site, it says that vcredist_x86.exe is only suitable for Windows 2000 and later. Is there an equivalent that can run under Win 98 or is there some other procedure that I should follow?
Thanks in advance.
