[Q/A]
[Q:] "It can't find some ocx files?"
[A:] cm95.zip comes with 3 ocx's, just put them in your System folder(or System32)
[Q:] "I can't run the program because of some errors."
[A:] This is mostly likely because you don't have the VB run-time files needed.
[Q:] "It won't let me open files or create new ones without distorting the image."
[A:] This happened when testing on lower end
machines. If you have this problem you may not have enough memory, or it just may require a reboot. (This is a more of a memory problem)
