My PC that has Siemens Step 7 version 5 installed (installed a long time ago) crashed. As a result I had to install a new hard disk and restore my complete drive C from a backup copy.
Mow Step 7 doesn't work.
The Simatic manager starts to open, but then I get a message something about missing S7hstatx.dll used for _S7H_STATION3_CT objects.
The file s7hstat.dll is still there in the correct place, so a missing file is not the problem. I suspect a registry entry corrupt or something.
Anyone come across this before? and know of a solution.
Don't say re install step 7, as I have misslaid my install disk. Copying from a backup like this should work, as I did exactly the same previously when changing to a large hard disk.
Just to be clear, I restored a complete image of the hard drive, including Windows 98, and everything else works okay.
