Your post does not have any information that will help anyone help you.

I am seeing several post of fab not opening but we need the full version number to connect the various post and see if this is a bug or ?????? .

What O/S did you restore and have you applied all updates and service packs?

[redwing]

i will try the service packs first thanks

[redwing]

XP will also need the .NET framework installed.

[redwing]

how do you get the .net framework

[GregiBoy]

You should be able to get it from Microsoft Downloads.

thankyou you been a big help

XP will also need the .NET framework installed.

I'm confused...what is it about either XP or DVDFab that requires .NET Framework??

And if so, which version of Framework??

No such requirement is listed on the website for Fab, and as a long time owner, I've never had to have .NET Framework installed on XP Pro to get Fab to work (right up to the current BETA... whatever the service pack installed...)

Usually installs as part of service packs and I think is required because Fab is written in C+ or C sharp.

Hmmm...never part of any service pack I installed...

I do have software that requires .NET Framework, and had to be installed separately (and a specific version, at that...not part of any SP, though...)

I believe Fab is written in C++, and as such, is a compiled language, meaning the compiler translates all the C++ commands into machine language, so it can run without any compiler or interpreter support.

Still confused by your comments.

So am I because I thought the same as you and then discovered that once I installed .NET framework on my XP testbed, Fab worked properly.

Go figure !!!!
