EHM on Windows 7 Question

Post by DaveG-Canes »

Just wondering if anyone knows how to register the .ocx files associated with EHM on Windows 7. I did it on my old laptop but forgot the way to do it that's needed to get EHM to work. And of course since that fried recently i'm kindof stuck.

As far as I know, you just put them in the main EHM folder like you always do. If EHM won't work, you may just need to run as admin or use compatibility mode.

I don't recall having any problems, but I'm sure I did.

In Windows 7x64, there might be a missing .dll (which is as easy as googling+downloading) that EHM likes, but I can't recall anything weird with the .ocx

Do they not register if you go to the command line?


(Should point out I use a hacked .exe of EHM - but don't we all use the 'no-waiver' hack?)

It should. Nothing has fundamentally changed about the architecture, it's just got a revamped interface. (And, allegedly, it's got greater legacy-program compatibility? Haven't played with it yet either. If it's really supposed to be lighter-weight than 7 (Can't even overstate the shot in the arm my system got when I swapped Vista for 7... oy.), might be worth while.)
