Description
When using WinCC flexible Runtime on a SIMATIC PC with a Microsoft Windows XP embedded operating system, the Engineering Software (WinCC flexible ES) and the Runtime must be of the same version. You have received a new version of the Engineering Software from the Software Update Services (SUS). Now, when you start a project transfer to the PC with the WinCC flexible Runtime, this aborts with the message that the Engineering Software version and the Runtime version do not match and transfer is not possible.

Now, if you start the Setup of the WinCC flexible CSA DVD on a SIMATIC PC with Microsoft Windows XP embedded operating system and select the Runtime, installation is aborted. You get the message that there is not enough free memory for the temporary installation files or that your current operating system is not supported.

In this case, proceed as follows to install a new version of WinCC flexible Runtime nevertheless.
