- Program Compatibility Wizard buttons are blank
Symptom
I'm trying to install AncestryView on Windows XP, which requires the Program Compatibility Wizard. When I open the wizard, however, the three buttons at the bottom are blank. If I click the third button, it cancels the wizard, but the other two don't do anything at all. I even tried disabling the anti-virus program and firewall to see if that was the problem, but it didn't work.
Resolution
Click Start, Run and type:
regsvr32 msxml3.dll
Press Enter. Similarly, execute the following commands:
regsvr32 compatui.dll
regsvr32 wshom.ocx
regsvr32 scrrun.dll
regsvr32 jscript.dll
regsvr32 mshtmled.dll
The Program Compatibility Wizard should now open correctly.

When I execute: Run->regsvr32 compatui.dll, the result is: <<LoadLibrary("compatui.dll") failed - The specified module could not de found>> and.... the three buttons at the bottom are still blank.

I too got the result of LoadLibrary failed, however my buttons are no longer blank - but now when I try to run the program Pro One Multimedia Algebra II, I now get an Invalid Property Value message. It says to manually install the font by using the install new font in the file menu of Windows 95 font folder. Make sure you remove the check mark fro the copy fonts to Windows folder before you click OK I am lost where is all this?
