Error with ORCAD 16.5

James P
The Error: ERROR(ORCAP-1030): The installation did not complete successfully. Cannot proceed. To rectify this error, close AMS..., run the following command by using the Start - Run menu option from the taskbar and restart the AMS...: installed path \\tools\\bin\\Pspiceexplorersrvr.exe /regserver Steps I have taken to try to solve it: I tried the exact line of code in an elevated mode command prompt, and in the Run menu. I have tried to create a batch file that would unregister and then register it again. I have uninstalled and re-installed ORCAD 16.5. I have run Cadence.exe in compatibility mode (Windows XP Service Pack 2 and 3) I have looked for tips on Google, which all lead me to other peoples problems with earlier versions, on here, but none of the solutions they post help in my siuation. So, I'm at my wits end to how to fix this problem. If anyone could help, it would be appreciated. Thanks, James Popenhagen

    ....."If I use the code given by alokt, I just get a blank line. Then it changes nothing".... Command

    "DboTclHelper_ReRegisterOrCADPlugins" will not generate output. Getting a blank line indicates that command executed properly.

    James I assume you are running an licensed version of product, can you please confirm this and share details about operating system you are using here.

    I am running a licensed version of the product. I am running on Windows 7 Enterprise 32 bit.

    Above command should have fixed the plugin registration for you.

    At what stage you get above error: At the time of opening of a project or at later stage?

    if at later stage what steps you did just prior to getting this error?

    Also, have you tried opening sample designs supplied with PSpice installation (.../tools/PSpice/Capture_sample/...)? Are you able to open up these without error?

    Also I would recommend you to open an SR, so that this issues can be properly investigated by cadence support team.

    I brought my netbook running Windows 7 Starter on the plane for my trip to the west coast.  I was able to load 16.5 without any problem and work through all of the tutorials before landing.  I will assume that my Windows Vista notebook issue is related to not running with SP1.  Thanks alokt for your technical assistance.  I will work with my local sales rep to iron out platform issues for our lab.

    It is at the time of opening a project. I cannot open sample designs. What is an SR?
