Morpheus and Windows XP


Recommended Posts

Does anyone have Morpheus running on XP? I downloaded it and everytime i go to install it, it says "You do not have Windows NT or Windows 2000 Administrative Rights." Anyone else have this problem? Any solutions? Thanks...

I have XP Home and Morpheus runs fine and dandy. Before I had RC2 and it was also fine. Just make sure that when you install it, you are logged in as either the Administrator or an account with Admin privelages (i.e. not a limited account)

I'm running Morpheus under XP. The first time I ran it it was fine. The second time it crashed. If I delete the "db" subdirectory, it runs fine again, but then all subsequent times after that it will crash. This does not answer your question, but it may answer that of someone else: if Morpheus crashes every time you run it, delete the "db" subdirectory before each time it is run.

I only had problems with Morpheus when I installed a new user onto my machine - then would not run in my (admin) account, but ran OK in the new user settings... go figure!?! All OK again when i deleted the other user account, so now I have only one again, mine! :ermm:

I have had the same problem. I went to the Morpheus site www.musiccity.com, it the discussion group, I found this answer.

del Dbdata256.dbb

del Dbdata1024.dbb

start Morpheus.exe

Save the above command as Morph.bat in C:/Program Files/Morgheus folder. Then right click the Morph.bat and choose create shortcut to desktop. From then on start morpheus from that short cut.

This was suggested by arachnid37 on 12/17/01.

one other suggestion, uninstall Morpheus and reinstall before you do this change in the program. It took me three tries before I finally got Morpheus to run.:s
