Running smaug on windows, just the binaries...

[code]
C:\Pennmush\game\>pennmush /start
Unable to access service details
** Error 997
** Overlapped I/O operation is in progress.

C:\Pennmush\game\>
[code]

Any help would be great, thanks!

Which version of Windows? It might not support services.

Try /run instead of /start

Plus, you are running PennMUSH, not SMAUG.

Bah, Win2k, supports services, and I meant pennmush :p

Don't know why - try /run anyway to see if the problem is only for services. Do you have administrator rights to install a service?

Yes, I am the only one operating this computer, I am the administrator... and, I get the same error when /run...
