Install error: NTVDM CPU contains non-valid instruction

Post by jazvec » Tue Feb 19, 2008 7:53 am

Hi,

I was trying install Audacity, but I did not successfull. The reason is error: "NTVDM CPU contains non-valid instruction". I tried all available version of Audacity on my Acer Aspire 1350LC with Athlon XP-M CPU (win xp home), and on desktop with Intel Dual-Core E2180 (vista home premium). The result was the same. But I found an older version (1.3beta) with runs well. Where is the problem ? I attached the image with error message.

Thanks,
MJ
