Hi Folks,
I've been trying to run the 3.7 beta on my machine, but I am yet to be
successful.
This is how I tried to install
1> Install 3.6
2> Download 3.7 beta
3> Overwrite 3.6 \bin files with 3.7 beta
Basically, when I double click pvengine.exe, nothing happens!! It does not say
any error message too.
I used the straceNtX to trace what is happening.
This is what I see
/------------------------------------------------------------------\

Tracing command: ["D:\bin\appz\video\POV-Ray for Windows
v3.6.1.a\bin\pvengine.exe"]
Exception = c0000005, Address = 7c918fea (first-chance!)
Exception = c0000005, Address = 5b006f55 (first-chance!)
Exception = c0000005, Address = 5b006f55 (first-chance!)
Exception = c0000005, Address = 5b006f55 (first-chance!)
Exception = c0000005, Address = 5b006f55 (first-chance!)
...... The same thing a million times ....
\------------------------------------------------------------------/
Povray 3.6.1.a, 3.6.1.c etc work without any problems !!!
The CPUs are dual Athlon MP 2800+ and OS = Windows XP
Am I doing something wrong somewhere or does Povray need dotnet runtime or
something ??

Don't overwrite 3.6 files!
Just download the beta files into a folder alongside the 3.6 one. The beta
will automatically look if and where the 3.6 version is residing. just start
one of the beta exe's.

Something wrong? Yes. You overwrite the 3.6 files.
Create an other folder. It can reside as a subfolder in the bin folder, or be a
"bin_beta" folder beside the original bin.
Now, start the beta from that new folder. I have a shortcut to the 3.6.1 and one
to the 3.7beta.
Need some external runtimes libraries? NO! Not at all!

If you still are having problems with this please be sure to let me know. I
don't like it when stuff like this happens ;-(
One thing: if it's still not working, could you please advise if you have a
Logitech webcam installed? I recall a beta-tester in the past had a problem
that appeared identical to this and I tracked it down to a DLL that
Logitech inject into the address space of most Windows processes.
