"Problem: QuickTime is outdated or missing.
ArchiCAD requires QuickTime 7.0 or later, image compressors,
decompressors, and required GSQtCom.
Make sure you have QuickTime installed with the "Recommended"
option chosen at installation and not with the minimal option selected.
Uninstall QT then reinstall it with the recommended option selected.
You must also run the GSQtcom.exe to register it."
It took a awhile to find but I found and ran
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Graphisoft Shared\GSQtCom\14.0.1\GSOtCom.exe. ARCHICAD FAILED AGAIN with the same error!
I uninstalled Archicad 64 downloaded Archicad32 Same error message.
I uninstalled Quicktime 7.6.9 (the latest version) Downloaded the latest and greatest version (same) from Apple.com. Installed it without error. (standard install)
Archicad gave the same start fail error........ran GSOtCom.exe Still FAIL!
Does anybody have any ideas?
is this a ported apple program that has issues with windows?

You may have to do all three Solution for it to work.
I had this problem one time and only after Solution 3 did it start working.

Installing software should not be this hard. ArchiCAD has failed me.
Thanks for your effort

both "vcredist_x64.exe" and "vcredist_x86.exe" on 64-bit Windows.Did you install all that and it still does not work?
You may also try to restart the system (just to be on the safe side), although that might not be needed.

I am not a nubie with computers, I have been building them since 1976 and subscribe to Microsoft Technet and have installed Windows 7 over over 2 dozen times. I have never had this much problem (nor patience) installing software.
I hope Graphisoft can improve the installation process so if the install fails it can do better than an incorrect cryptic error message.
I am intrigued as to why I have having this problem. Others have got Archicad to install and operate normally but there seems to be some conflict on my system, that Archicad does not like. I may have to try it on another system, when I can find the time & the system.
Does Archicad work on a virtual machine?
