Wine and Fisher Price Computer school

Post by snowflake.nz »

Decided to give in to my 3yo daughters nags and got her a Fisher Price Computer School for Christmas.
It can be viewed here http://www.fisher-price.com/fp.aspx?st=10&e=ccslanding
Anyway, installed it using Wine. Went through the whole process. I can see that it installed but I keep getting an error when I try to run it.
I installed it into our documents folder which is easier for me.

Anyone got some advice for me?

Looking at the site you linked to, I see this product is actually a USB keyboard and tablet with accompanying software. If it's a standard keyboard and tablet just made to look kid friendly, Linux should recognize it as such, and you might be able to get the software to work in Wine. If it requires Windows hardware drivers, however, those will not work in Wine.

I get this error when trying to run the software in wine

The error message I keep getting is

Exception EExternal Exception in modul FPCCS.exe at oo32E9B0
Eternal exception C0000025

What the FPCCS is is pretty unclear. From what I see it could be the password installation which I'm not opting for.

What version of Wine? If it's not the latest development release, upgrade. If that doesn't help, run it from a terminal and post whatever messages appear. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#run_from_terminal

It looks as if you are getting two messages interleaved with each
other. I wouldn't be surprised if one or both of the "o" bytes in
"oo32E9B0" is supposed to be part of the module name, and/or some
of the "FPCCS" bytes aren't part of it.
