  • Windows Live Essentials 2011 Setup error 0 x 80040705

    When I try to install Windows Live Essentials 2011, I am getting error 0 x 80040705.

    The source says that the problem is with the file D3DX10_42.  I am running Windows 7 64 bit.  I tried:

    • remove all older versions of Windows Live, and then reinstall Essentials 2011
    • Download a new copy of the file and replacing it in System32 and SysWOW64
    • installation of DirectX June 2010 update
    • complete installation of the version of Live Essentials 2011 instead of the web version

    .. .but I get the same error whenever I try to install.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Hi all

    The best and 100% working solution for all problems of installation and configuration, is related to the Windows Installer database. Because it stores information about the temporary location of the packages install but it is never update itself on the second tent installation or somehow got in conflict on this subject causes such errors as:

    -The path to the installation package does not.
    -Windows cannot find the specific file.
    -Installation failed (unknown error)

    The Solution:

    Download this utility: Windows Installer Clean Up it's a free version, install it then run it, look at the list of programs and select the program that you are trying to install (in our case, select here all that starts with: Windows Live and also select Microsoft Silverlight and you can select multi using the CTRL key), then press Clean. It will take about 5 ~ 10 minutes to erase all the information stored in the database of Windows Installer, once finished you can close the tool, run the Setup program again and throw me a big "thank you!" :-)

  • Locked Sierra Quickbooks 2011

    I upgraded to Sierra and am now locked out of Quickbooks 2011 Mac.  (It would good to know this would happen BEFOREHAND.)

    I'll be able to convert this file if I buy a new version of Quickbooks?

    Apple does not develop Quickbooks, but they were available in developers Sierra. QuickBooks has had ample time to update their software, fix it or ignore the responsibility.

    You back up your mac as recommended by Apple? If so you can return your OS to the point where the software and the operating system have been copacetic, otherwise ask the Quickbooks support above if they can help you. Apple does not solve their software for other developers, they also don't tell you what 3rd party software no longer works and what makes it, that's up to the developers.

  • DAQmx Setup error

    I have a brand new with Windows7 - 64 bit.  I installed LV 2010 RT, FPGA and all drivers. No problem.  I then installed LV 2012 with RT, FPGA, a few tools and drivers.  I got an error when installing on DAQmx.  I told him to continue.  Then, I got an error at the end saying that something was not installed correctly.  The two messages are attached below.  I have uninstalled all NOR associated and repeated.  Same result.  I can open and run LabVIEW 2010 and 2012.  I can open MAX.  However, when I attach a USB-6008 to the computer, it is said that the driver is not loaded.  MAX can't see the 6008.  Which, of course, corresponds to the Setup error.  Any ideas how can I fix?

    Thank you

    DaveT

    Hi Dave,.

    This problem is often related to anti-virus software. You have any antivirus running on your new computer software? If you do, please try to uninstall DAQmx, disable the active virus scan utility and install the drivers as administrator.

    I hope this helps! Thank you

  • Cannot install on XP Pro SP3: "Service Pack 3 Setup error - the system cannot find the file specified."

    I am trying to install SP3 on my XP Pro.  I get a notice on my screen, stating: "Service Pack 3 Setup error - the system cannot find the file specified."  Don't know what I'd do.  Thank you.  Peter glass

    That's good news. I think you also need to analyze of rootkits being on the right side. So, now:

    Search for rootkits with a program SPECIALLY designed to detect and remove the (aswMBR):

    Download this file to your desktop. Double-click the icon to run the program. When the opportunity to download and install the latest Avast definitions do.
    Run a scan. Results in red indicate that this was not a false positive! Do you need to remove the rootkit (including "FixMBR" if necessary).

    And finally, leave your PC on overnight and search for viruses, using this site:
    Once we are convinced that your PC is clean, here are my instructions (just in case where you still cannot run batch of Geek-Tech file, etc.):

    1. download the installation of SP3 and IE8 (beforehand) files. I prefer to keep these (and other useful files) on a USB key, but this is optional. Here are the links for the installation files:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=24 (for SP3)

    (You can TOTALLY ignore the message "intended for it professionals"!)

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=43 (for IE8)

    (You need to install IE8 AFTER SP3! Trust in me.)

    IMPORTANT NOTE!

    It is VERY important to ensure that Internet Explorer is at the level IE6 before installing SP3. In case you have IE7 or IE8, you must uninstall it / them, using the Control Panel Add / Remove programs. Let us know if you need assistance with this.

    Once again:

    Make sure that IE is IE6 level before installing SP3. You can go directly from IE6 to IE8 after SP3 has been installed.

    2. disconnect Internet. Also unplug all unnecessary devices.

    3. temporarily disable the automatic updates. To do this:

    Start | Control Panel (switch to Classic view if not already selected). Automatic updates

    4 set up a clean boot. The last thing you need is for a program that runs in the background to interfere with these updates! (It happens!) For more information:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

    (Note that this is the same as setting up a "Diagnostic boot.")

    Reset.

    5 install the SP3. Restart TWICE.

    6 switch to IE8. Restart TWICE.

    (What happens very often is that someone has their software antivirus running as they try to install SP3, which often translates into chaos! "This is why it must be done after installing SP3 and IE).

    7 unscrew the clean boot. (That is, return to the Normal startup).

    8 make sure that firewall Windows is activated (it should already be):

    Start | Control Panel | Security Center

    9 visit Windows Update to download and install only the critical security updates. Restart each time you are prompted.

    10 re - enable automatic updates.

  • Service Pack 1 Setup error. -The server has failed

    original title: Service Pack 1 Setup error. Windows XP Home 32 bit

    The following occurred during the installation of Service Pack 1a tried to download files from the service pack 1 on the internet:

    The server did not respond.

    This happened again and again I clicked retry. The program tries to connect to http://xpSP1.microsoft.com/isapi/pstream3.dll/xp/SP1.USA.1106a

    I also followed the links he is said to take on the web page of the service pack for installation troubleshooting. I am only given a choice to restore the default settings on the automatic updates. I have not automatically updated.

    You try to update a system restore which is now Windows XP 'Or' (without service pack)?

    If so, please read the tips following long-standing MS MVP PA Bear.

    If this isn't the case, please explain what you are trying to do.

    Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything in the list below, in order, before connecting the machine to the internet or a local network (i.e. other computers) and before you plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external computer diskotherwise:

    1. Make sure that the Windows Firewall is enabled.
    2. Uninstall any moment invalid Norton, McAfee, etc., free version of test which was also reinstalled, run the appropriate removal tool (see below), and then install an application antivirus of your choice (for example, http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/default.aspxMicrosoft Security Essentials- free).
    3. Arrival to Windows Update & get the computer fully patched.
    4. Install Windows Defender [Editor's Note: obsolete; do not install] or another anti-spyware application that integrates a real-time protection.

    TIP: Use another and negative computer to download programs for, for example, SP2 or SP3 installation, the installer for your new anti-virus application and or other removal tools cited below. Transfer these files to CD or DVD (not a flash drive) and then transfer the files of the CD or DVD on the desktop of the computer you are using.

    Hi Rick,

    Given that the CD does not work in Windows XP computer also, there seems to be a problem with the drive itself.

    Clean the CD or the DVD. To do this, use a disc cleaning kit. Or gently wipe the silver part of the disc with a soft and Lint cotton cloth.

    You can read the following article and check.

  • Windows 7 Ox80070017 Setup error

    Good then I got an installation disc that made the files it contains and appear on my computer but I have a new problem now in which an error pops up saying that some files are not which is really unfortunate. The error code I get is: Ox80070017

    original title: Windows 7 Setup error

    Hi Mohamed Kebbay,

    Error code 0 x 80070017 means generally bad media. I would recommend that you download the file again, you may have corruption in ISO itself. So if possible, download the file again. After you download the new copy, try burning at a lower setting 4 X or 8 X speed. Once you burn the disc on a lower setting with the new ISO standard, and then see if you can install Windows 7.

    See installation and reinstallation of Windows 7 for more information on installing Windows 7.
