Hello, I am a Python beginner looking to try learning GUI programming
and I heard wxPython is the best toolkit to use. But I cannot seem to
install it. I tried downloading the installer several times and
running it, and it gives the same error every time.
I am on a Toshiba laptop, Windows XP. When I run wxPython2.8-win32-
unicode-2.8.10.1-py26.exe a command line box opens up that is blank
and an error message window pops up that says:
NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction CS:0574, IP:0587 OP:
63 72 69 70 74
Choose 'Close' to teminate the applicaiton.
If I push close, it just closes everything. if I push the other
offered button, 'ignore', it makes me push it a zillion times and
then.. everything still closes anyway.
I've goggled this error, and it seems that several other people have
experienced it, but I have never found someone answering the question
and solving the user's problem.... Often they suggest downloading
the .exe again, but I've done that several times now so that's not the
fix.
Still, I thought I'd give it a shot and thought that if anyone could
help me if would be a member of this group. Thanks in advance!
Are you sure it was actually downloaded again and not just fetched from some web cache? You might also want to try downloading it from a different SourceForge mirror.
