Error "Insert Diskette Labeled WordPerfect 2. |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: A customer using WordPerfect 5.1 updated the Program 1 & 2 disks. After installing the new release, the user received the message "Insert Diskette Labeled WordPerfect 2 And Press Any Key To Continue" when starting WP. The user verified that both the .EXE and .FIL files were the correct date. They had plenty of room on the computer and sufficient memory to run the program. It was finally discovered that the user had renamed the WP.EXE file from the earlier release to WP51.EXE, and was executing the file with a batch file. The customer was still using the batch file. This meant they were executing the WP51.EXE from the old date. The old WP51.EXE was then calling up the new WP.FIL file, thus causing the error. The user eliminated the problem by deleting the old WP51.EXE and renaming the new WP.EXE to WP51.EXE. (Discontinued use of the batch file also would have eliminated the error.) Another user received this error because there was a WP.EXE file in the root directory. The user entered ATTRIB \WP.EXE /S at a DOS prompt to find the file. Removing this file corrected the error. *This information is given strictly as a troubleshooting option. |
