Moogie, try running some apps in the windows(or /system) folder. Nothing unusual about that error.

You see...those are the original errors from 3,11. All newer window$ are only skins and patches! So with some little skill you can invoke a priwinsdow$ial error.

Ok, I have windows xp.

I downloaded the 5 files and I ran the updater program.
After that I tried to run the Psclient.exe but it wont start because of the win32 psclient.exe is not a valid program error!!!

Go to the file\'s properties and play with the compatibility settings. Try win98/ME first.

redownload it, this kind of things happen when you miss some important bytes.

btw, a win32 application is a windows 32 BIT application ;)

Did you scan your system with an anti-virus lately? This kind of error could be provoked by a virus.
