Error during installation of SP3

Works with Windows XP MCE SP2 (newly installed).  Set to automatic update tried twice to install SP3... both times I got an error message "unable to install catalogs".  Is there another download, I need the installation can be completed successfully?

1. do you have the clean install leave with WinXP Gold (without Service Pack), WinXP SP1 or WinXP SP2?

2 AVG works in the background when you tried to install SP3?

After having done the clean install...

3. how much time the computer was connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers) before you installed AVG Free AND all the Windows updates available?

4. did you insert a flash drive or SD card or connect the computer to any external drive before installing AVG Free AND all the Windows updates available?

5. don't you "merge the C partition with unallocated block" before or after you have installed AVG Free AND all Windows updates?

  • C309g fatal error during installation

    Used the last full installation for C309g AIO. Under XP SP3. Wireless installation. Installation froze near the end to "product Configuration".

    After about 30 minutes, it is reported in a window titled: "C:\Documents and Settings\ (my username) \Local Settings\Temp\7zS5BFB\hpzsetup.exe"-«Fatal error during installation»

    Then place a file on my desktop that was supposed to fix the problem. But it wasn't only for installation of USB.

    Before that, the printer has been detected. The network is OK. Print 'Wireless Network Test report' shows all pass and no problems found. I can print and scan from another laptop on this wireless network.

    I totally uninstalled all HP software using Panel of control-add/remove, then reinstalled several times.

    This c309g worked at one point.  Also had a C4780 AIO as an old scanner flat 4570c on this network.

    I'm heading for Kodak, Lexmark or Brother.

    Click on the link below to find out how I completely uninstalled all HP "stuff" before you try to reinstall the full package all-in-one.

    He said do not to use the uninstall file - L4.bat, but I use it after the other 3.

    Before doing anything, I used "Revo Uninstaller" (free), instead of add remove, uninstall anything with HP or Hewlett-Packard in the title.

    Takes some time that whenever may require a reboot.

    I have not found all the HP files that are listed in the article, or in "services.msc".

    "Uninstall-L1..." 2, ... 3 and... 4 also require restart when everyone is finished.

    When does all this uninstall must start > run, type %temp%. Select all and remove the mess.

    Now, you can run the installation package.

    My c309g is now operational in printing and scanning. Also the Solution Center is back.

    Good luck

    I solved this problem by clicking on edit instead of delete it. Then, when the software uninstall program apple appears, choose Delete. This should allow you to remove the apple software.

  • PhotoSmart C6280 - fatal error during Installation

    I have Win 7 (64-bit) system and can not install the software for my C6280 all-in-One Printer.  I get a message "Fatal error during Installation" and then the software tries to uninstall.  During this process, a reboot is required and then the software tries to install again and it fails.  I'm in a circle without end of the installation-uninstall-install-uninstall...

    How to do this?  I want to uninstall completely all the software associated with this printer and then start over from the beginning.

    The issue that brought this situation was that I was getting the following message is displayed when starting:

    "There was a problem starting C:\users\Myron\AppData\Local\IsolatedStorage\HP\zelqof.dll.

    The specified module could not be found. »

    I guess the missing module would settle if I re - install all software associated with the printer as it is ONLY connected printer (USB) to the PC.

    Whenever I turn on my computer I get a box that pops up and say "Update: there is an error during installation." Please reinstall the application"How can I do this?

    Original title: when I turn on my computer

    You should consider carefully as pop - up and determine what application has a problem.

    If he has no idea anywhere in the pop - up, first physically disconnect your computer from the Internet (because in the following steps, you will temporarily disable your antivirus software).

    • Click Start and type "msconfig.exe" (without the quotes) in the search box and press ENTER.
    • When the "System Configuration" window opens, select the tab "start".
    • Uncheck the half of the listed items (for your convenience, click on "Startup Item" in the column header to sort the items alphabetically)
    • Click OK and restart (click here to avoid the warning that you are in a diagnostic mode)

      If the pop-up warning does NOT appear, the problem application has been one of the items you unchecked.  If this is the case, reopen the System Configuration and check again half of the elements that had checked you.

      Similarly, if the pop-up warning appears, then the application problem is that remained turned on. In this case, open the Configuration of the system, again check the items that you had disabled, then uncheck half of the remaining items.

    • Restart and continue the process until you have identified the problem application.
    • Once you have identified the problem application, open System Configuration once more, select "Normal startup" on the "Général" tab and restart.
    • Do not forget to reconnect your computer to the Internet
    • Uninstall or reinstall the application issue.
