Frequently Asked Questions
- The program doesn't load onto my computer.
Answer: Confirm that your
computer is IBM (not Macintosh) with operating system Windows XP or Vista.
Our program does not work on Macintosh. Sorry. If your operating system is
Windows 2000, Windows ME or Windows 98, the program may work. Some of the
functions may be slow, however, especially the Screen Saver.
Answer:
Windows XP: You must be logged on as administrator to load and use the
program.
Answer: Turn off your anti-virus software. It may not recognize
the program and will not allow it to load.
- Error 1911, "could not
register...;" missing file error, General loading Trouble
Answer:
- Make
sure you are logged on as administrator
- Disable anti-virus software.
- Create a new folder on the desktop called "install."
- Go to "my computer"
and right click on the CD drive which contains the Exambusters CD.
- Select
"explore." You will see several files and folders which are on the
Exambusters disk.
- Select all of these and copy to your new folder called
"install."
- Open folder and click on blue icon "setup.exe." Program should
install properly. Any error messages, click "ignore," (up to 11 times) and
the program will continue loading.
- When you have completed installation and
entered your password (CD must be in drive when entering password and
loading courses) delete the folder "install."
- The Screen Saver function
is slow or jammed.
Answer: The Screen Saver function requires a relatively
fast computer to run quickly, and for the buttons to retrieve previously
flashed images in a timely fashion. An older, slower computer will struggle
with the data changes.
- The Program will not load and you receive a
"scripting" error.
Answer: Anti-virus software loaded on your system may
prevent our program from loading. Disable the anti-virus software, reboot
and load "Exambusters." Then you may enable the anti-virus software again.

- Password in
use.
Answer:
- Option 1: Reboot your computer. If the "Exambusters" disk
is in the drawer, eject it from the drawer and reinsert. A window will come
up allowing you to choose "Run Exambusters." Click on that, and the program
will open.
- Option 2: You have an incomplete install. Go to the start menu,
find "Exambusters" and click uninstall. When the uninstall is complete,
reboot your computer. Turn off virus software if possible, insert the
"Exambusters" disk, and reinstall the program. Allow it to finish, there are
many files to install, and it might take a few minutes. Don't do anything
else on the computer while it's installing. When the files finish
installing, the screen will come up asking you for the password. Type it in.
- Option 3: You are not logged on as administrator. You must install the
program and log on as administrator to use the program.
