  • Particle Illusion 301a Demo – Setup Error – “The Handle is Invalid” – Looking For Help

    Posted by Arcuro on July 10, 2006 at 4:16 pm

    Hello all,

    When I run setup I get an error message that says
    “The Handle is Invalid”

    I searced the message boards but did not seem to find any help. If there is a post on it I am sorry for posting this one.

    I am running

    Particle Illusion 301a Demo
    Windows XP SP2
    Dell Latitude D820
    2GB Ram

    Thx for any help…
    DTS

    I’ve not seen this error message before, but here are a few things to try:

    – Restart. This fixes a lot of weird errors.

    – Disable any antivirus or spyware monitor apps

    – You can either run setup.exe from within WinZip (or whatever Zip utility you use) by double-clicking it within the Zip, or by extracting to a temporary folder, then running it there. Whichever method you used, try the other method.

    If none of those works, please let me know.

    Alan.

    I feel like this error would only happen if you tried running setup from within the winzip utility. Try unzipping it a directory, give a shout back if this works.
