1. From WinXP 32-bit to Win8 64-bit

Hi,

How do I install Euphoria and port my project from my old WinXP SP3 (32-bit) system to new Win8 (64-bit) system?

I installed Eu405 on my new Win8 laptop and tried to run EuIDE. IDE loads Ok but when I try to run my project, I get following error -

Msg 12 - CreateProcessHi for 'E:\EUPHORIA\EU405\bin\eui.exe "E:\EUPHORIA\EuProj\Projects\SyndicateAdmin\SynAdmin.exw"' failed.

Thanks & Regards.

Hi
I do not think this is a problem with Euphoria.
I changed about a year ago from XP SP3 to Win8 64bit, and now Win8.1 64bit

Eu4.0.x works nicley with Wn8.

Most problems i had was about copying files over. You should copy over your files not using a ntfs mass storage.
ntfs copies a lot of metadata, like owner, permissions etc.
All this data does not fit to the new Win8 installation (the old WinXP user id does not even exist...)

You better copy your files using a non ntfs filesystem (like an usb stick with fat32 or pack them to a .zip file)
to get rid off all this metadata.

It's also a good idea to install eu4 freshly and get a new copy of win32lib.

Hope this helps
Andreas

The "createProcessHi" message is from IDE. It is only issued when you run your solution from within the IDE environment and Euphoria (looks like it is looking for eui.exe) is either not there at all or is not where the program expects it to be. I would need to know what version of the IDE you are using and whether in "exw" or "exe" form before I could advise further.

PS. Does the Win8 64-bit version get installed somewhere other than "c:\euphoria"?
