Errors in installation

Hello

I have trouble setting my Flight simulator X edition.  When installing, it freezes and says: error1309. Error reading
the file E:\XSX\Simconnect.dll. Check that the file exists and that you can access.

Can someone help me? I don't know why it does. Any help is appreciated with gratitude.

Kind regards

Hi hwiggy,

Thanks for posting answers.microsoft.com

There are several reasons that could be causing the problem.

There is a list of steps that must be performed in order to narrow down and isolate the problem.

Here are a few questions before you start this function of the response may require different steps to resolve the problem.  Is there information in reliability on the failure of the installation monitor?  Click on start ORB / right click computer - select Manager / monitor reliability and performance / reliability monitor - there are five Sections of report of status of failure indicated at the bottom of the window.  Look through these reports and the list in the forum all that relates to this failure.  That is to say the ERROR XML, Direct X - etc.  In addition, do you remember any hardware or software changes preceding this installation?  What revision of Windows Vista and which service pack is running this system - click Start ORB / type of search WINVERS line and it should show you this information.  It list in this forum too.

If you get XML errors, we probably need to uninstall MSXML packs and reinstall them, so let us know if this is what you see in the reliability monitor, ignore the following steps, and give you the instructions to the XML file.

Here are some general troubleshooting steps to suffer this problem until we know more information:

This problem can occur for the following reasons:

  • If the Temp files are conflicting.
  • If there are other applications that run in the background.
  • If the security software coming into conflict with the game.
  • If the administrator rights are poorly positioned.

To clear the temporary files:

1. Click Start, type % temp % in the start search box and press ENTER.

2. in the Organize menu, click Select all.

3. from the Organize menu, click on delete.

To determine if other applications that run in the background are the origin of the conflict:

Run MODE MINIMAL start-up process.  Use step 1, and then try to install it, if it fails to move on to STEP 7 - THIS IS IMPORTANT and restore your system to a STATE of NORMAL STARTUP.

To check if the security software is in conflict with the game:

Step 3. Open an administrator command prompt.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

1. click on start-> all programs-> Accessories-> guest of command, then make a right click by selecting

2. "run as Administrator" and clicking on "allow" for the rapid rise

In the command prompt, type the following command

3. true fsutil resource setautoreset C:\

("This implies that C: is the drive in which microsoft - com:office:smarttags" / > Vista is installed.) If it is installed on another drive as D: Please change the appropriate drive letter)

  • LV 2011: Error 1334: Installation cannot find a file in data.cab

    I'm trying to create an installation using Setup LV2011. After a success, I test it on PC Windows 7 x 64 and I see this error during installation:

    Error 1334: The file: XYZ cannot be installed because the file is not found in the data.cab file... Continue?

    I check the data.cab file and see the file XYZ. The XYZ file is BAT file that I want to run after the installer is finished, or another file included in the installer.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    You run the patch f2? It is supposed to solve a known problem with the construction of large installers, it isn't you receive the error message, but it could be a side effect.

    I checked through the other problems for LabVIEW 2011 known, and I have not found something that seemed relevant. I also checked for corrective action requests and have not found those that mention the same problem.

    I have found some similar questions of LabVIEW 8.5, and in these cases, the culprit was a + in file names. You can check that the names of files in your error message exactly the names of files in the file data.cab. You can also try to change file names relevant to something very simple with only letters.

    I was wondering, are you will be able to include all the other files that do not throw errors, or each file that you try throws errors?

    If you wish to post your project, I would be happy to see if I can reproduce the error.

    @DidokB,

    Thanks for posting back.  The other drives must have some sort of issue if they all failed to install.  If you have to install on the last of them, then is not the operating system recovery or the laptop.

    With some drives, there could be questions that are not connected to bad sectors.  It may be something with reading / writing system.

    Thanks again for the post and have a great day.

  • 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.
