Question 1:
I keep getting a message after installation saying...."CRC error- cannot install
file C:\Program files\3DSolarSystem3_7\3DSystem.wld
you will have to run the utility again
to complete installation" but I keep
getting this same message everytime I try... What is wrong?
Answer:
1. Your download session may have been interrupted, please try to download
the program again and make sure you download the file completely before running
it. 2. If you had attempted to run the setup file from the desktop, this
could be the cause of your problem. Please try to run the setup from another
location.
Question 2:
Why can't I get the Real Planet Image?
Answer:
Check the preferences and change the option 'True Worlds' to 'On'. Restart the
program.
Question 3:
I only see a gray screen and nothing happens if I select an object or change the
preferences. Why?
Answer:
You might get the error If you use an onboard graphic card or a graphic card
using the PCI slot.
Please try the program with a 3D graphic card using the AGP
slot.
Question 4:
When I try to run the program I get an error message. "The MSVCRT.DLL file is
linked to missing export NTDLL.DLL:RtlGetNtVersionNumbers". Is this resolvable?
Answer:
Remove or rename the file "MSVCRT.DLL" in the 3D Solar System 3.7 directory (default):
"C:\Program files\3dSolarsystem3_7"
