Mac Wkst: Address Error at _CopyRgn

ID: Q112275

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks, version 3.1

SYMPTOMS

During startup, if both version 3.1 of Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks and Pointing Device CDEV version 1.2 are installed under System 6.x, then the following error will be displayed:

Address Error at _CopyRgn

CAUSE

The INIT drawing code in this INIT/CDEV is custom code. It is standard procedure to use Apple's sanctioned "ShowINIT" source code for INIT/CDEV to display their icons while booting. If prevented from displaying this code, the problem will be solved. Another alternative is to load Pointing Device last by renaming it to "zPointing Device."

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.1 of Mail for AppleTalk Networks. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
