Title: SDL.DLL file is linked to missing export USER32.DL
Post by: builder_4500 on June 22, 2005, 04:08:24 am
Hi! I just installed via download.com...got uqm-0.4.0-win32-installer.exe and ran it, had it download content only. Running it on Win95 machine. Install appeared to go OK.

When running, I get two error boxes "C:program Files\The Ur-Quan Masters\uqm.exe A device attached to the system is not functioning" and "The SDL>DLL file is linked to missing export USER32.DLL:GetAncestor" Is there any hope for me?! :-[ Thanks!

Sorry if this is a repeat issue...I did search first without success.

Install Windows 98SE or Me. Or maybe run the Linux version with bootable cd..

Heh, if you're on a Windows 95 machine, you can resart your machine in DOS mode and play the original Star Control 2. ;)

Apparently SDL 1.2.8 (at least the official binaries) broke compatiblity with Windows 95. Try downloading SDL 1.2.7 and using that instead.
