Hello everybody, two questions.
  Hello how are you friends, i am new to nsis and i have a couple of questions about this tool

first one is :¿some body have truobles making instalations with NSIS in COMPAQ computers?.

second: i found some materials about install VB run times but NSIS it's new to me, ¿does anybody have more iformation about this?


Use this macro:
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/archive/....php?pageid=38

on the file list written here:
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/archive/....php?pageid=47

For example:


Section "Instsall VB Files"

!insertmacro UpgradeDLL "C:\\local\\path\\to\\vbfiles\\Comcat.dll" "$SYSDIR\\Comcat.dll"
># install all others here too...
>SectionEnd
>
Make sure you:
Define UPGRADEDLL_NOREGISTER before upgrading Stdole2.tlb (and undefine it before upgrading other files).
So use:

define UPGRADEDLL_NOREGISTER

>!insertmacro UpgradeDLL "C:\\local\\path\\to\\vbfiles\\Stdole2.tlb" "$SYSDIR\\Stdole2.tlb"
>!undef UPGRADEDLL_NOREGISTER
>
What problem do you have with COMPAQ computers?

thank you very much, for your attention.

i been used a compiler called PowerBasic to develop, but the functions i found to make a shortcut work fine in almost all computers except COMPAQ, and i wonders if somebody have troubles with compaq machines.

Section "Instsall VB Files"
!insertmacro UpgradeDLL "C:\local\path\to\vbfiles\Comcat.dll" "$SYSDIR\Comcat.dll"
# install all others here too...
SectionEnd
what hapen wiht this computer it's that the next time i restart my computer computer doesn't boot, it's something strange, and i need to copy some files to fix the computer.This hapen with my PowerBasic Functions to create shortcuts.


sorry i paste code in wrong place, just ignore it


That's what the edit button is for ;)


ok :)
