Technical Issues
1: Configure the Nachlass software to view the images from the hard disk
Follow the steps below:
| [1] |
Copy the images from all the image CDs to a folder called P on the hard disk, e.g. C:\P. All the images must be in one folder only, i.e. no subfolders should be found in C:\P |
| [2] |
Double-click on the file EXEC2.INI, usually found in the C:\WINDOWS folder. Amend the line starting ImagePath= to say ImagePath=C:\P\ |

2: Fonts appear unreadable, in Greek or as boxes
To correct this problem delete the Nachlass fonts (list shown below) from the computer using the FONTS Control panel. Check also that none of these fonts are found in the C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM folder, deleting them if necessary. Restart the computer and reinstall the fonts manually from the installation CD using the FONTS control panel.

5: Error message - “IVLITE caused GPF in module ACCUGLD5.DLL”
The above error message occurs when running the Nachlass on Windows XP. The IVLITE program is not Windows XP compatible and there are no upgrades available for this software. However, it is possible to redirect the Nachlass to use a different viewer. To redirect the Nachlass to use Internet Explorer, follow the steps below.
| [1] |
Assuming the Nachlass is already installed, open the file C:\WINDOWS\EXEC2.INI |
| [2] |
In the line that states VIEWER=C:\IVLITE\IVLITE.EXE -L -M, change to VIEWER=C:\PROGRA~1\INTERN~1\IEXPLORE.EXE |
| [3] |
Save the EXEC2.INI file and then open the Nachlass program |
A better viewer for the images might be one called Irfanview. You can download this program from http://www.irfanview.com/. If you choose this program as your viewer for the Nachlass images, then you will need to repeat step [2] (above) replacing the VIEWER= path with the path to the Irfanview program. Remember to use the short filenames when changing the path, i.e. C:\PROGRA~1 instead of C:\PROGRAM FILES.
