Impossible to install Battlefield 3 on Windows XP
Original title: DX10 on XP?
I bought battlefield 3 and it wont let me install on XP are you going to run dx10 on Xp... never? And there at - it something like DX9L or is it a myth that it performs as DX 10 on XP, so I can install Battlefield 3?
Hello
You can not play on Windows XP since the minimum requirements for battlefield 3 are:
Windows Vista 32-bit (Service Pack 1)
Dual Core 2 GHz processor
2 GB OF RAM
20 GB of free HARD disk space
Graphics card compatible AMD NVIDIA DirectX 10 compatible with 512 MB RAM graphics card or DirectX 10.1 with 512 MB RAM
Map its compatible DirectX
Keyboard and mouse
DVD-ROM drive
And DirectX 10 is not supported by Windows XP. If your computer meets the minimum requirements of the system for Windows 7, then I suggest you to upgrade your computer to Windows 7 that supports most of the features for the next matches.
To see if your PC is ready for Windows 7, download free Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor. It scans your PC for potential issues with your hardware, devices, installed programs and recommends what to do before upgrade you.

Impossible to install Google Chrome on Windows 7
After downloading and installing Google chrome program does not open.
Help, pleaseHello
When you uninstall Google Chrome you also remove the Chrome files that remain when the program is removed? Verify that no files have been left after uninstalling. The path to check (with hidden files showing) is:
C:\Users\
\AppData\Local There you should see a folder with the name Google remove this folder and try to reinstall. To get hidden files to show the computer open, select organize in the toolbar area. We see the choice of folder and Search Options. Click on that. From there click on the view tab. There is the option to show hidden files. This will allow you to find the necessary space to remove the folder.

Impossible to install KB2656374 - codes missing Windows Installer Error 80070641
original title: lack of Windows Installer
All of a sudden, seems missing Windows Installer. Certainly not in my list of Services. Thus, the last Microsoft Update K2656374 don't settle with error code 80070641 and 641. A few other updates has not as well. This is the first time Microsoft updates failed. I can't install Windows Installer 4.5 (or any other version) because I get an error message that says that it is not for my system. I think it's because he's not here to update. And I can not install software updates with the .msi extension. Can someone tell me how to extract or install Windows Installer?
I use Vista Home Basic SP2 32 bit and have been for several years. It is the first occurrence of this problem. Using Kaspersky Internet security, and in both years.I'll tell you what has worked for me. Once you have the file "msiserver.reg" on the desktop, right-click. Now, I didn't have an option "Merge" but I got the option 'open '. Then I opened the file using "regedit.exe". You can find it in C:\Windows I think.
I received a confirmation window that my registry would be changed. I said okay Then I got a confirmation that the change was made. I rebooted my computer and looked in "Services" of Windows Installer. And here!I also discovered that System Mechanic is the culprit in deleting a file in Windows Installer. SO I've excluded from analysis of System Mechanic. So far, I'm good. -
Impossible to install Office 2003 on Windows 7 Starter netbook
Hi - I'm looking for help in setting up my office 2003 DVD on my netbook. I tried to connect a DVD player to my netbook (not good) and followed with a copy of the contents of entires of the DVD to my netbook via a flash drive (also not good).
In both scenarios, I get the following error:
Installation of Microsoft Office 2003: error 1723. There is a problem with the Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. »Cords or suggestions would be appreciated.
Hi Steve Heff,.
You receive this error Windows Installer error 1723 when installing a program. Installation can be terminated prematurely, or there may be a fatal error during installation. Windows Installer error 1723 occurs because Windows Installer cannot start the source files for the configuration of the software application you are trying to install. These files may be missing or damaged. In general, the original MSI installation files will be cached in the ' C: winntInstaller directory before installation begins. Inappropriate caching of a file MSI is main causes of errors, too.
First of all, check if the Windows Installer service is started in the Services.
1. click on start.
2 type Service to start the search.
3. Locate the Windows Installer Service in the Services window.
4. make sure that the service is started, if it is to restart the service and check.Now try to install Microsoft Office and check.
If you are unable to install, then I suggest that you uninstall all files related to Microsoft Office 2003 by using Windows Installer Cleanup Utility.
See link: use the utility Windows Install CleanUp to remove Office 2000, Office XP or Office 2003: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
Now try to install Office and check.
To get help, I would recommend that you visit the Microsoft Office forums from the link below:

This problem is limited to a specific file? You are able to install the other program successfully?
This problem normally occurs when the device is not compatible with the current configuration of the system.

I try to install Oracle JDeveloper 12 c on Windows 7, but I get the error 'Property CMD' not found in autorun.inf, when I run the file directly.
If I run Oracle installer (as an administrator), I get the file "corrupted", but I think it is misleading.
Google search, this seems to always point to that here where it says
Previously, I had a compatibility issue when installing Oracle Developer (forms, Designer, reports and JDeveloper10g), I corrected as saying that must be run on Windows XP SP2, and that did the trick. But I don't see anything about compatibility via the google search for this problem.
When the exe file is run some tests pre - req gets run as 64-bit JVM and Swap space. The other machine may not have the pre - req.

Impossible to install PS CS3 on Windows 7 64-bit
I have the 64 bit version of Windows 7. I, apparently, properly installed PS but when I click on the icon to open it I get the logon screen, but no splash screen, and that's it. Finally, I get a message that the PS does not. When I 'X' out of PS I get a screen saying that it will look for a solution, and then close the Psalm nothing happens except that the PS does not close. I tried a repair of the PS installation. I have MS Win 7 Professional 64 bit installed, CPU AMD Phenom II X and 8 GB of RAM, hard disk of 2 terabytes. Thank you.
I have searched for an answer but have not found anything close to this.
I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor before you install Windows 7 (I already had Windows XP Home Edition) and the only problem detected Advisor was a potential problem with Roxio Creator 2009. Obviously, this is a new installation of Windows 7, because it is not possible to make a place in upgrade from XP to Windows 7. Thank you.

Impossible to install oracle XE on windows 2000 Professional
Hi master,
in fact, I tried to install the oracle database XE on windows 2000 Professional service pack 4 Administrator.
but this isn't installing.i do not know why it is also not create necessary directories.although it shows the entire process, but nothing works very well.
What additional configuration should be made to install XE on NT? I consult the docs also but got no response.
What should do?
Thanks and greetings
VDVikrant,
Check the Setup logs. IE: preference before asking here... You post a question that requires crystal balls, and my only assumption (probably safe) is you either didn't check the system requirements to install Oracle or you missed an error message.
