Title: Can't get CPCDiskXP to run on XP
Post by: protek on 13:09, 25 November 12

I'm trying to run CPCDiskXP on Windows XP SP1 but it will not run. If I double click the program icon, I can see the hourglass for a moment but no GUI. I have the FDRaw installed. Do I need older version than the latest of CPCDiskXP or do I need newer service pack?

The program is compiled with MSVC 2010, according to documentation the minimum supported operating system is Windows XP with SP2.

You can try some old version of the program, as they were compiled with the previous version of MSVC or upgrade to Windows XP SP2 or SP3.
