If you have applied the printing patch to TinyTERM 4.03 and now get a “TinyTERM mismatch” error, you probably have older versions of Tiny Term installed on the PC. To get rid of the error, do the following:

1. Manually uninstall TinyTERM.
2. Reboot your PC.
3. Reinstall TinyTERM 4.03.
4. Apply the printing patch again.

How you get rid of the Marathon Internet Services icon in the system tray depends on your version of Windows. Regardless of the version, after you follow the procedure, the icon won’t load at startup any more.

Windows 95, 98 or Me

1. Right-click on Network Neighborhood.
2. Select Properties.
3. Select Century Internet Services.
4. Select Properties.
5. Select the Options tab.
6. Uncheck the “Start Internet Services at Windows 95/98 startup” option.
7. Click on Apply, then OK.

Windows NT, 2000, XP or Vista

1. Click on Start, then Programs or All Programs, then Startup.
2. Right-click the “CenLPDstatus.exe” icon.
3. From the pop-up menu, select Delete.

For these operating systems, you’ll probably want to stop the CenLPD service as well:

• Open the Control Panel.
• In Classic View, open the Administrative Tools.
• Open the Services applet.
• Double-click CenLPD.
• Change the “Startup type” to Disabled.
• Click OK, then close the Control Panel.

This prevents CenLPD from loading, saving both memory space and processor time.

After entering the serial number and activation key, the TinyTERM 4.03 install sometimes disappears. When this happens, make sure there are no other versions of TinyTERM on the PC. If there is an older version installed, use Add/Remove Programs from Control Panel to remove it.

Before attempting to install TinyTERM 4.03 again, press Ctrl-Alt-Delete and end every task except Systra and Explorer. Once that’s done, run the install again. It should complete without a problem.

This error is usually caused by installing a new version of TinyTERM over an older version. To resolve it, search the C: drive for the file CenLic32.dll. Right-click each copy found and select Properties. Check the version number against the version of TinyTERM you most recently installed. If they don’t match, delete CenLic32.dll.

When you are done, you should only have one copy. It will probably be in C:\Windows\System, C:\Windows\System32, or C:\Program Files\Century\TinyTERM. If it isn’t, move it to one of those directories before starting TinyTERM again.

If this does not clear up the problem, uninstall TinyTERM. Delete CenLic32.dll if it wasn’t removed during the uninstall. Then reboot your PC and reinstall TinyTERM.

This error may come up after installing TinyTERM Thin Client Edition 4.02 on Windows NT Server 4.0. To fix it, uninstall TinyTERM. Next, search for the file MFC42.DLL. Rename any copies found as backups. You may have to boot to safe mode to rename MFC42.DLL.

Once you have renamed all copies, install TinyTERM Thin Client Edition again. It will complete normally, and and TinyTERM will start without errors.

Installing TinyTERM Plus Edition 4.0x on a PC running Novell’s NetWare Client32 may cause the PC to hang on boot, or it may boot into safe mode. This only happens with TinyTERM’s Network Utilities installed.

This error is caused by a conflict with the Novell IP Gateway. It’s normally installed only with a “Custom Install” of Novell Client32. The “Typical Install” option does not produce this conflict.To resolve the problem, you’ll need to do one of the following:

• Remove “Novell IP Gateway” from the Network Properties
• For versions of Novell Client32 prior to 3.10, remove the Novell Client32 software and install 3.10 without Novel IP Gateway.

If the PC will only boot to Safe Mode, remove Century Internet Services from the Network Properties. You can then do one of the above actions. But if you need the Novell IP Gateway, you will have forego the use of Century Internet Services.

When this happens, you’ll need to create the install diskettes again. When creating the floppies, boot to DOS to run 35floppy.bat. If you create the floppies in a Windows MS-DOS Prompt, you will get an valid install disks.

When trying to create floppies using the 35floppy.bat file TinyTERM 3.3, you may see the above error. It usually means your hard drive is full or nearly so, with not enough workings space available to create the floppies.

Check the hard drive to see how much space is available. Free up as much as you can. If there is still insufficient space, you’ll need to use another PC to create the floppies.

Using self-created floppies of the TinyTERM 3.3 install on Windows 3.1, you may be unable to setup TCP/IP afterward. This generally happens when the TCP/IP or network utilities options were deselected during the install. You will need to uninstall the current install, reboot the system and reinstall. Make sure you select both TCP/IP and network utilities on the reinstall.

When this happens, it means the original install did not complete properly. You will need to do the following:

• Manually uninstall all Tiny Term products.
• Reboot the PC.
• Press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to get the task manager. End all tasks except Systray and Explorer.
• Install TinyTERM again.
• When prompted to restart the computer, select No.
• Click Yes and OK on all other dialog boxes. Some dialog boxes may be behind others, so make sure to close these windows carefully.
