CUPKEYBD.DRV Causes GP Fault in MS Publisher 2.0
CUPKEYBD.DRV Causes GP Fault in MS Publisher 2.0
Q103799
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Publisher versions 2.0, 2.0a -------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When starting Publisher, you may get the following error: MSPUB caused a General Protection Violation in module CUPKEYBD.DRV @ ####:#### CAUSE ===== This problem may be due to an incompatibility between Publisher 2.0 and the CUPKEYBD.DRV keyboard driver from Norton-Lambert's Close Up. NOTE: Unconfirmed reports indicate that versions 5.0 and later of CloseUp do not cause this problem because the later versions use "non-invasive" methods of installing. In other words, the program uses its own .INI files instead of modifying settings in the existing Windows .INI files. WORKAROUNDS =========== Method 1: Replace the CUPKEYBD.DRV Driver ----------------------------------------- Remove the CUPKEYBD.DRV from the KEYBOARD.DRV= line of the SYSTEM.INI file, and replace it with the Windows keyboard driver, KEYBOARD.DRV. The edit line in the boot section of the SYSTEM.INI should then read as follows: keyboard.drv=keyboard.drv Method 2: Disable the Line -------------------------- Disable the line by placing a single semicolon (;) at the beginning of the line keyboard.drv=c:\windows\cupkeybd.drv and then add a line below it such as the following: keyboard.drv=keyboard.drv The third-party product included here is manufactured by a vendor independent of Microsoft.
