Did you get an "Ordinal 248" error when installing SlingCatcher Desktop software?

If you try to install SlingCatcher Desktop, and you see this error:

The ordinal 248 could not be located in the dynamic link library msi.dll...

... there are two things that you must do:

  1. Upgrade your PC from Windows XP-Service Pack 1 to Windows XP-Service Pack 2 (or higher);
  2. Download the latest version of the SlingCatcher Desktop installer from the Sling Media website. (If you're seeing the exact error message above, then you don't have the latest version of the SlingCatcher Desktop installer.)

Note: Making sure that you're installing SlingCatcher Desktop using the latest installer file offers many benefits, but it doesn't change the need to upgrade your Windows software to Service Pack 2 (or higher).

See the documentation that came with your computer for information on upgrading your Windows software.
