TextPad and Microsoft .NET Framework

Seiken · Post by **Seiken** » Sat Jun 11, 2005 2:13 pm

I've been using TextPad for a week now, still very new at it. I was doing some tutorials from my class and had no problems. About 2 days ago, I updated my video drivers which required me to install the .NET Framework.

I can't run any java applications (I get DOS error messages) now and I'm thinking it may have something to do with .NET Framework.

Has anyone had this problem? Maybe they should add it on a FAQ or something.

Strange, I can't think of any video drivers using .Net framework, some utility that comes with them, sure. Perhaps uninstall .Net fw just to see what happes? Does .Net come with it's own "Java"? If so, try removing the Java tools from TP and have TP add them again. Or if you'd like to continue using your original version of Java, reinstall that. HTH

Thats odd coz I have ATI radeon c.c. on two PCs and neither have .Net Is this a recent thing? I hope not coz who wants to install over 100MB of .NET cr@p just to use a pretty cr@ppy c.c. (possibly 2000/XP only?)

Only if you get the extended control panel thingy. The basic drivers don't have it.

ATI Control center doesn't REQUIRE .NET. ATI provides two versions of their drivers. One of these two versions includes their Catalyst Control Center which does require .NET. The other package includes the driver but no Catalyst (hence, no .NET).

.NET shouldn't have corrupted anything with Java. There is no Java runtime with the .NET Framework. The only thing I can think of might have to do with your PATH environment variable. What runtime are you running?
