Just to add something. I looked into the \3commapps\tcm\devdb directory. There is only one file "chsindex.idb", which I have attached. I opened this file using NOTEPAD. It has only two lines of data as follows: [Chassis DB] Status=Current It is all new to me so I can not tell if something is missing or not? Kirt ------------------------------------------------------------------ Thank You.. Thank You.. Attached is the file you asked for.

Can you send me the files in your \3commapps\tcm\devdb directory? They have all your connection settings, so I can see if it's possibly just a wrong option selected or something. You shouldn't have any problem running TCM on any recent Windows operating system. I've run TCM 8 on Win98, WinXP, WinNT4, and even Linux under Wine. On Mon, 2003-08-25 at 21:06, Kirti S.

Same error. I have also tried installing the software on a Win XP PRO PC. Same Error. Is it possible that I need to have a stand alone PC? Can I run TCMsoftwareon a stand alone PC with Win XP Home or it has to be Win 98? Any suggestion is highly appreciated. I am getting frustrated. This is my first encounter with 3ComTC. Please respond!!!!

Are you using TCM 8, or TCM 4? I'm not entirely sure if TCM 4 will work with a Hiper system, so that *may* be the problem. On Mon, 2003-08-25 at 18:12, Kirti S.
