Class Factory Cannot Supply Requested Class

Cannot find CDROM drive


The problem:
Some people re-name their drive letters for various reasons
The software is looking down the line in alphabetical order until it sees a CD drive, if there is a blank gap between the CD and other drives on your computer the software stops looking, in the example below the software is looking for "E" and sees that there is nothing there and assumes that there is no CD drive then it reports the error.
A=floppy
B=floppy
C=hard drive
D=hard drive
E thru W =not used
X=CD drive < --here's the problem
The Fix:
go to "my computer" right click on the CD drive, choose "properties" and change the drive letter to the next available letter, in this case it would be "E", re-boot, and re-install software then install the fm2paste.exe patch located above.

Misc Runtime errors

After researching Runtime errors a bit, I was told by a techie that runtime errors are usually associated with windows registry errors and a common "registry cleaner" program will usually fix the problem, I went to TUCOWS and found a free one:
