Operating System, like Windows XP or Windows 98. If you can find out what Service Pack (SP) you have installed that is nice to know.

Just FYI, my operating system is XP Version 2002, Service Pack 2.
But really, it took me a while to find out where to get that info. Is it possible to revise your stickied template to indicate to people where they can find all the technical info you need to troubleshoot problems (just make it a parenthetical within each line of the template).

The problem with that is that it depends on the OS /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" /> so all explanations would get REALLY long and confusing.

Simple way to find out your OS:
1. Save everything you're working on ATM.
2. Reboot computer.
3. Read the OS name off the startup screen.
I mean c'mon, you HAVE booted up your machine at least once, haven't you? /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

No History, it's pretty damn simple and straightforward /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
I asked for OS versions, because there is other problem, that seems to be purely Win 98 related. No update on your problem for now

Uninstalling Alleg and .NET 2.0 and re-installing .NET1.1 and Alleg with manual ASGS files overwrite seems to have worked.
I was WinXP by the way.
PS. Don't forget to save your artwork folder and then overwrite it, saves time.

But Ogor, that would require someone to reboot their computer right at the exact moment they're trying to fill out your template. The easier way is to simply open control panel, double click on system and read what it says : P
Regarding the uninstall, I play from a company laptop and I would hesitate to uninstall NetFramework 1.1. As I recall (please pay attention o great developer of the fancy new netframework compatible 2.0 system, a.k.a Pook), when I first went to install Allegiance on this laptop and tried to install netframework, it told me I didn't have access rights. Thankfully, as it turns out, it already had 1.1 onboard. But I doubt I'll be able to install 2.0 if that's going to be the requirement.
(The only caveat is that was months ago, and I just vaguely recall that it wouldn't let me install it... maybe I had been trying to install 2.0 and it wouldn't let me, who knows).

I currently have .net 2.0, and it still comes up with this problem
so it's not that...

You NEED .NET 1.1.

As ImZ says. Although .NET 2.0 without SP worked until recently (I know because I updated to be ready for the transition) it no longer works. So the solution is to uninstall 2.0 (possibly using the cleanup tool mentioned
here) and install
.Net1.1
Yes this might cause other programs to fail, and it might be better for you to wait for the ASGS upgrade to .NET 2.
