SYMPTOMS
Building the Setup Toolkit for Windows provided with version 3.1 of the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) causes the following error message when the application is linked:

LINK: Fatal error L1001: NOP : option name ambiguous

"-or-"

Unrecognized Linker Switch /NOP

CAUSE
The Setup Toolkit is built with the Microsoft C/C++ compiler version 7.0. The Setup Toolkit files are designed for use with Microsoft C version 6.0.

RESOLUTION
Modify the CUISTF.LNK and CUISTFD.LNK files in the Setup Toolkit BLDCUI directory (by default, C:\WINDEV\MSSETUP\BLDCUI) to replace the /NOP switch in the first line with the /NOPACKC switch. The first line of the corrected files is as follows:
