Hello everyone !
I have a problem that I encountered with Orcad Pspice. I made on Schematics bootstrap circle, but when I ran Pspice simulation the following problem appeared:

Does anybody know how can I fix the problem ?

P.S:
The Schematic circle is :

Just a trivial typo.

160 pF isn't a valid capacitance value. Write 160pF instead.
 

Thank you for the suggestion, you are right. But after that appeared another error :

ERROR(ORPSIM-15113): Model D1N3492 used by D_D3 is undefined

ERROR(ORPSIM-15113): Model D1N3492 used by D_D4 is undefined

ERROR(ORPSIM-15113): Model Q40236 used by Q_Q1 is undefined

ERROR(ORPSIM-15113): Model Q40236 used by Q_Q2 is undefined

ERROR(ORPSIM-15108): Subcircuit AD820/AD used by X_U1 is undefined

In other simulations I encountered the same error. Any ideas ?
 

This is because you are using demo version of software and the diode/bjt models you have in your design are not available in demo version.
See if you can replace them with the ones available with demo version. For ex- Instead of diode D1N3492 , try to use D1N3940, D1N4002 etc. Same for BJT.
These are available in eval.olb.
