Not a valid Win32 - vCenter server application install on W2K3

Hello

We want to evaluate vSphere but stuck at the beginning, when you try to install vCenter Server we get "D:\ is not not a valid Win32 application" when you try to run the installation from the DVD.

This is true on Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Ed R2 and Windows 2003 Server Enterprise edition 64-bit. They are freshly installed with nothing on it systems. If I put the DVD in an older system, it works very well, so I'm starting to think there is a required dependency.

I tried to install Windows Installer (2, 3.1 and 4.5), to no success.

Any suggestions?

Have you tried just copying the source locally and the installation of that?

Seems strange to try, but your error message seems to point to the D:\ (dvd I guess)

Are these virtual machines or physical servers?

    I tried to download windows live messenger after a new new copy of windows xp.
    I received the following error message (wlsetup is not a valid win32 application), I realized the the version I'm trying to install is only supported by windows 7 or windows vista. So I tried to download windows live install for xp, but I received the following error message (use windows update to download the latest version of windows install, then try again.)

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Windows install is what is used to install programs. Have you checked if there is an update as they said and you have the latest Service Pack?

    You can answer these questions then try this:

    1. go to this site - http://ninite.com/
    2. scroll down a bit to mail and put a check mark on Messenger (2009).
    3. scroll to the bottom of the page, and then click Get Installer.
    4 run.

    It is always sensible in this situation to achieve a malware check

    Start the computer in safe mode with network and download and install Malwarebytes (free version for individuals only), updated definitions and run in safe mode. Disable other security software while you do the analyses.
    http://www.precisesecurity.com/how-to/HT-smodewnet.htm
    http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

    Download and run SuperAntiSpyware (Free Edition)
    http://www.SUPERAntiSpyware.com/download.html

    Some malware is installing the entries of proxy server redirecting internet connections. If you encounter this problem step 2 see in the following link:

    Currently, this is a good combination that seems to detect more malware, but it can miss the malware as all security software can do.

    Luckilly I have an iphone so managed to get on internet forums and find a solution which was to use a command in cmd.exe that fixed the problem.

    Hi tarmacsnortingmonster,

    That is the reason why I n t play with any 3rd themes part because I always read from time to time on various problems after installation. So I don't use Windows themes pre-installed and don t have problems.

    In any case, I think you should try a system restore to an earlier point before installing this theme.
    I hope this helps if not it is time to reinstall Windows, I think that :(

  • Fallout trilogy > problem download > Fallout (E :) > E: / is not a valid Win32 Application.)

    I just got the trilogy Fallout game for Christmas. I was downloading on my Windows XP laptop. I jumped the drive and nothing happened. I checked the computer room to look for the removable disk, I found Fallout (E :) and clicked on it, it normally start the Setup and let the installation program to download, then install, so allow me to play the game.)

    But when I clicked on what came was "E: / is not a valid Win32 Application."

    I assume that Win32 is Windows XP? And on the game, it says it requires OS: Win90/2000/XP with DirectX 7.0 or later/Vista version.

    I just got my laptop completely wipe clean and load Windows XP on it to him. He used to have Windows Vista Home Basic, the Fallout 1 game, I used to have downloaded without problem. Fallout trilogy has 1 Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel.

    If you can please tell me how I can download this soon so I can play the game, I'm pretty frustrated and upset because my cousin has spent hours looking for this game, and it was the last available at the 5th GameStop he went to.

    Hello

    Here is some information that may be beneficial to get a resolution to your inquiry.

    If you had installed Fallout3 mode "Run As Amin" and will still have problems.  Uninstallation of Fallout 3.  Install the following Microsoft DirectXhttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3 and that reinstall Fallout 3, mode 'run as administrator '.

    Do not install the latest patch yet.  Run Fallout3.  If it works well, do a system restore point.  Then install the latest patch.

    In addition, when a right click on the .exe file, it should be a 'compatibility' tab, if necessary, please try to install the .exe file in Windows XP SP2.  I hope that this information is beneficial.
