dysfunction of the system hardware has ceased
I got the above message twice in recent weeks and don't know what to do. The full message is, failure of hardware, NMI: parity check/memory parity error * the system stopped *.
I have Windows Vista on my laptop.
Thanks in advance

Download and run to create a boot CD of Memtest86 + http://www.memtest.org/ . This will check your RAM by starting on the CD and running many trials.
If you have more than one piece of RAM installed, delete all except one and see if it boots then. If this is not the case, replace that one with another and try again.

the system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation
I looked through the forum and have tried all the options. I try to install the total war empire on my laptop. I installed other games and never had a problem. When I click on install it as upward with the system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation. Once I click ok it said failed to run the script. Ive went through all files and run by administrator but the same message appears. Ive said I checked this forum and followed all the steps, as much as I could do but still nothing. Any help would be great. Thank you.
mr2zircon92,
Is the only program that you experience this problem with? If Yes can you install the demo version on their website? You can also right click on the Setup disk file and select "Run as Administrator" and see if that helps. Let us know the results of these elements. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

I have Windows Vista.
When you try to install COD MW2 disc, I get the following message is displayed:
The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation.
Then it continues with the installation of the first disc perfectly, but the problem occurs with the second disc. When you are prompted to enter the second drive I do and he doesn't recognize. The drive doesn't look like it runs as if it is scanned intermittently. STEAM will freeze and (no response) as well as menu my computer and the DVD disk drive. So far, I can't find any solution to my problem.
I had the game earlier on the same pc but had to uninstall STEAM temporarily.
Any help would be appreciated! Thank you.
Thank you for your response. However I can't find the "local security policy" in administrative tools. Not sure if it's because of Vista.
However I managed to the second drive yesterday after many many attempts. It seemed to work when I changed the AutoPlay settings to open the folder and view the files. I have no idea why, but he was able to read the disc in this way, after a few attempts.
Thanks anyway. :)

I just want to know if someone know a method that works and allows you to install a program in safe mode? I'm running following error message when you try to install an application of msi in safe mode:
"The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation.
and the event log contains the following event log. Please note that I am not interested in discussing questions about the installation in normal mode. I would like to know if there is any way to do this in safe mode only. I edited the registry to activate the MSIServer installer of Windows start in SafeMode with networking and also entered the local->-> application Software Restriction policies and checked security settings all users except administrators is enabled. Always make the same mistake.

Windows Setup does not load in safe mode, that's why you get the error probably. Why are you installing in safe mode? Why not normal mode?

Original title: uninstall error.
How can I uninstall without the system administrator has set policies
Hi Telowe,
1 are logged as administrator?
2. you have more than one administrator account on your computer?
3. what application you are trying to uninstall?
4. this happens only with a specific application?
Method 1:
You can try disabling UAC and check if you are able to uninstall the program. Try the instructions in the following article to disable UAC.
Enable or disable the User Account ControlNote: We do not recommend disable user account control. If you turn it off, you must reactivate as soon as possible.
Method 2:
You can temporarily disable a security software and firewall installed on the system and check if the problem persists.
Note: Be sure to enable the security software on the computer after checking.
Hope this information is useful.

However, I am the only user of that pc and logged as administrator and there is no multiple user accounts. How can I continue the installation process?
Problem is solved. The solution was to make the disabled user account control.

Suggestion:
Turn off User Account Control (UAC).
Try to install.
If it works, please make sure you turn UAC.Where is the UAC:
Start button > Control Panel > column on the left, select Classic view > user accounts > select user accounts enable or disable > uac prompt > uncheck "use account control...". "
For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.
