[comp.sys.hp] HP NewWave installing problem

matikainen@cc.helsinki.fi (05/22/91)

Anyone here know what the HP NewWave install program is looking for
when it checks where Windows is on one's hard disk? It says: Looking
for Windows on drive C: ... Looking for Windows on drive D: ...
.. Windows not found! My Windows 3.0 is in D:\WINDOWS.

The manual kindly tells me that the error message "Windows not
found" (or something like that) means that "MS Windows was not found
on the drive"! 

Not that I would have any use for Newwave. However, working for an
HP dealer I'd like to know...
