> Hello Zope Community
> On my Dell Inspiron 4100 laptop, with operating
> system Windows Millenium Edition, i first installed
> Zope 2.5.0 and then Python 2.2. Then, when i tried
> to start Zope, by clicking the Zope start-icon, the
> computer crashed. I restarted the computer, tried to
> start Zope again, and the computer crashed again.
>
> Now I was notified, by someone more knowing than me,
> that I should have installed Python first and then
> Zope. So I removed Zope and Python and then
> installed Python and then Zope. When I tried to
> start Zope the computer crashed again.
>
> Then I removed Python, because I was told Zope
> has Python within it, and tried to start Zope.
> Again the computer crashed. (On some of the crashes
> the screen went black, on others white with stripes,
> and yet on others nothing happened - everything was
> just locked. And on each time I had to turn the
> machine off to get it started again.)
>
> Then I removed Zope also (again through the
> controllpanel under the start-button), installed
> an older version of Python (2.1) and then Zope.
> But again the machine crashed. So now I wonder what
> is going wrong?
>
> After this, I have installed Zope and Python
> successfully on machines running on Windows XP and
> Windows 98. But then I did not install any Zope
> version before I installed Python.
>
> If any in the community could help me out on this,
> me, and some more, would be very grateful!
>
> Thanks, and best regards
