[Csnd] Windows XP 6.01 Setup Problem

	I could not run from the latest Windows Setup binary. I get warning messages relating to FluidSynth (couldn't find certain dll's) which I temporarily solved by deleting the two FluidOpcode dll's; but console output gives: WARNING: could not open library 'C:\Csound6\bin\\portaudio_x86.dll' (-1) WARNING: could not open library 'C:\Csound6\bin\\rtpa.dll' (-1) I note the double slashes which seem to indicate an installer error. FWIW, my .csd asks for MIDI input (-M0) and the same message appears as in 6.00.1 indicating a virtual MIDI keyboard active. (I had hoped the MIDI incompatibility with Windowx XP might have been sorted by this time - but perhaps not. Art Hunkins

	Michael Goggins recommended that I NOT try to install 6.nn on my XP machine. He didn't think it would run properly--went with 5.19 --David Mooney On Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 3:51 PM, Art Hunkins <abhunkin@uncg.edu> wrote: I could not run from the latest Windows Setup binary.
