Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows 98) BuildID: 20010217 When I install it and try to run it, it won't work. I'm using a Compaq Preasario & has most of the hardware fuctions (on/off buttion, etc.) tied into Win 98. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Download 2.Install 3.Attempt to run Actual Results: Mozilla box icon pops-up, but never does a web browser appear. And I've let it sit for over an hour. It worked on my pos that I had until not too long ago. Expected Results: Maybe have a browser pop-up? I'm using version 0.7, but has had the same problem with every version produced, including nightly builds.
please run depends.exe [dependencywalker.com] and filemon.exe [sysinternals.com] using full logging for mozilla.exe also, please attach a list of all running processes [if you don't want to mention a process, kill it and try again] suspicious apps include DirectX, Sound related, and hung DDE.
You can try as well to delete everything that is Mozilla-related on your computer : old installs, profile directories (usually called mozilla in your windows directory), and mozregistry.dat and mozver.dat that live in your windows directory. This usually fixes this kind of problems.
Same bug for me, running 0.8 on win 98 on startup it opens 6 Threads, then stops ( still showing splash screen) Mozilla 0.7 installed in diffrent directory
Sounds like a DirectX application running or something.
Marking INVALID due to lack of response and lack of information. Reopen when/if we get more info.
