Trouble installing the Orcad 16.5

MagPal
Hi,

I did recently install the Orcad 16.3 Demo version, but wanted to upgrade to 16.5. The 16.5 cd was inserted and the installation process was started without uninstalling the old 16.3 Demo. The installation did not prompt me with any warnings, and the setup seemed to be okay.

However, when i am starting a new "Analog or Mixed A/D" project in Capture CIS i am getting this warning:

----------------------- ERROR(ORCAP-1031): The OrCAD installation did not complete successfully. Cannot proceed. To rectify this error, close Capture, run the following command by using the Start - Run menu option from the taskbar and restart Capture: \\tools\\bin\\Pspiceexplorersrvr.exe / regserver -----------------------

The instructions did not seem to work. I did also try uninstalling and installing several times. System is Win 7, 32-bits.


Anyone with hints & tips on this one?


Best regards,
Magnus,
Norway

    Okay. I am getting this message after reboot in every design, including new projects.

    When you are trying to install 16.5 prior to that remove it from add or remove prgs at times it won't pop up the window.

     Hi John,

    Are you installing the demo version or the license version?

    Please ensure that you are not using "Run as Administrator" for launching the application.
