Re: installation failure

Hi Howard,

What operating system are you using?  Full name including which service
pack (eg: Windows XP x64 SP3) 

What TortoiseCVS version are you installing?  Full name including the
name of the install file (eg:  TortoiseCVS-1.12.2.exe)

CVS Suite 2009 trial also includes TortoiseCVS, you can try that as an
alternative if you like.
http://www.cvsnt.org/

Note: the latest TortoiseCVS is 1.12.2 - for questions on this mailing
list please always use the latest version.  For questions about
TortoiseCVS 2009 (in CVS Suite) please contact March Hare Software
directly.

Regards,


Arthur Barrett
