I have run previous versions of DPs_Base without problems.
I downloaded DPs_base version 8.12.4 and find that many of the interface screens are missing. I get the "Start" press the wizard button and I get a COMPLETELY BLANK "Settings" screen. Press the wizard button and the next screen is "Select Location of Platform". Press the wizard button and the next screen is "Update Checker" and then "About Screen".
The following screens are missing are missing:
Select the DriverPacks to Slipstream
Choose the Slipstream Method
Choose the Method to Start the Finisher
KTD
QuickStream Cache
Other Optional Settings
Overview of Settings
I am also getting a NO OS Detected error and QuickStream Cache directory not found! in the log file.

I have re-downloaded DPs_Base 8.12.4 and I am still getting the same results. Please note there is no MD5 for DPs_Base.
Is this a bug in DPs_Base 8.12.4 that should be reported? If this is not a bug, can someone please guide me as to what is happening.
