SYMPTOMS

When you start FrontPage Explorer, you may receive the following error messages.

FrontPage requires 32-bit TCP/IP networking. You do not have 32-bit TCP/IP networking installed. Would you like to see help on how to install it?

CAUSE

This problem occurs if Win.com is located in the root directory (for example, C:\).

RESOLUTION

Move the Win.com file to your Windows directory. The default location for this directory is C:\Windows.

NOTE: Windows will not start if Win.com is renamed or deleted.

MORE INFORMATION

Win.com is required to start Windows 95. If Windows 95 does not find the file in the Windows folder, it will look in the root directory of the drive on which Windows is installed.
