Install problems


The install program will launch two Key installers (for old purple keys) at the end of the install procedure. Be sure to give the installer program time to finish. It is common to get a few error messages when installing a and then when first running the newly installed programs. Just try and run it (the installed program) at least twice before reinstalling or calling for help.

3D with Windows 7... If you install WindPlot 3D and it crashes when trying to open the 3D window then download the the following DirectX update file:

directx_feb2010_redist.exe

Run it and tell it to extract to a "DirectX" folder on the C drive. Then locate the "DirectX" folder using "Computer" and then locate the DXSETUP file inside it and double-click it to make it start then follow the instructions from there. The 3D window should then open after all files are updated.
LORAN-C automatic correction factors (ASF)
When this 7.23 update is installed and running, you should see a "USE ASF" check box on the TD calibration box and in the TD to LL converter located in the OPTIONS menu. Just check this and it will ask for an activation code. Purchase the code and enter it here. Then, you will be using ASF when the box is checked and using your old calibrations when it is not checked. Compare them now before Loran-C is shut down.. We believe the ASF corrections to be almost as close as the calibrated values for working offshore (NOTE: Errors will incease in ASF corrections as you get close to land.)
If you never see any message or the WindPlot II program starts but quits right away and the THREED32.OCX register described above didn't work then try the following:
Click on START then RUN and enter REGSVR32 /u SAPI.DLL and click on OK
If it does not say the operation was completed successfully then search for SAPI.DLL and copy it to the Windows/system32 folder.
Now enter REGSVR32 SAPI.DLL at windows RUN box and click on OK then try running the program again.

New install problem of no start or OUT OF MEMORY: We have found a file called THREED32.OCX is not registered by windows like it should. Try the following
1) Click on START then choose RUN.
2) Clear it out and enter: REGSVR32 /U THREED32.OCX then click on OK (you may get an error message. that is ok)
3) Now clear out and enter REGSVR32 C:\PC-PLOTT\THREED32.OCX then click on OK(you should get a message that it was successful)
4) Now try WindPlot, it should run now.

File names and dates to be replaced for KEY DRIVER ISSUES:
NVWGC16.DLL 6/13/2001 168,456 bytes

HINSTALL.EXE (4.96) 3/21/2005 3,936,000 bytes (Not used for Vista!)
If you still can not get the keys to work, make sure there are no other copies of these files anywhere in your system with earlier dates.
Rainbow key users will have to upgrade to the latest key to get WindPlot to work in XP or 2000pro!
