Had this problem with the Solaris 2.6, I ended up
playing
with the memory timing settings, set them slower.
Just an idea...

Of course, there are degrees
of rottenness. "Some bad
error messages," Ezzell says,
"are just placeholders that
slip through. We've all been
there." Ezzell acknowledges
he once wrote a message that
addressed the user as
"Dumbkopf" and was mortified
when the dialog made its
way into production. Thus, he
sympathized with Orem,
Utah-based Viewpoint
DataLabs, which managed to
include the following in its
LiveArt install:
Setup is unable to
locate a suitable
version of DirectX on
your machine. You will need to install
DirectX before you can
use LiveArt98, dumbass!
