Explanation:
The application could not start because a needed resource could not be obtained. The most likely reasons are that the Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) protocol could not be found or that the IPX WinSock information in the Registry is missing or in error.
User Action:
Use the Network option in Control Panel to make sure the NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Transport Driver is installed. If you still get this message, remove and re-install the NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Transport Driver or have someone who is proficient in the use of Regedit32 edit the Registry to correct the entries affecting IPX WinSock information.
