It says that there is a conflict with another program, what should I
do? Unfortunately Microsoft introduced file conflicts with Office 97 and Proview Navigator setup. You may see a message such as "Sharing Violation" or "Program Conflict" or words to that effect. To solve this problem, close the Office 97 toolbar if is running. After this has been done, if running Windows 95, press CTRL-ALT-DEL and click on the Program OSA from the list, then click "End Task". If the file "FINDFAST" also appears in this list, end it also by pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL again, selecting it from the list and clicking "End Task". If you are running Windows NT, you can bring up the Task Manager to end OSA and FindFast. If you still experience conflict problems and you have Windows 95, try restarting your computer while holding down the shift key to start Windows 95 in "Safe Mode", then retry the installation. During Installation you
get the following error message. Invalid
command line parameter. Unable to continue. Setup was not completed successfully.
