• Error 0x8007054F code: could not install SP3 for Windows XP

  original title: error 0x8007054F code: could not install SP3 for Windows XP because of the Filec:\windows\system32\drivers\acpi.sys being open or being used by another application. "Internal error."

  I tried to install Windows Service Pack 3 for Internet Explorer8. When you try to install this "priority" update, it begins the installation process, and then returns could not install Windows Service Pack 3 due c:\windows\system32\drivers\acpi.sys file is open or in use by another application. Internal error 0x8007054F. The only thing I have running in this case is the Internet (where I go to get the update) and the windows installation progress. What should I do to get past this problem? Please help me...

• DVD player doesn't work after installing SP3 for Windows XP.

  DVD player doesn't work after installing SP3 for Windows XP. That it disappeared from "MY COMPUTER". Device Manager sees it, but there's a yellow exclamation mark over it. See the BIOS of the motherboard and it still works in the BACK. I know SP3 is a collection of updates, but I'm not sure that is my problem. I suspect it's one of the more recent cause I have Windows automatic updates is turned on. Thank you.

  Hi Jim,.

  You get this error only if the IIS features above are not installed. I'm sure you launch the web as an administrator, even though server configuration tool that shouldn't contribute.

  Can you take a screen shot for these IIS features and share.

• Manager of Apple mobile devices will not install on my windows 7 x 64 dell xps studio laptop

  ITunes does not recognize my iphone 4. I reduced the problem to not install the Device Manager. She cancels and install it when I install itunes. I tried clean boot installation, reinstall itunes, separately install the AMD, install versions old iTunes and even tried to use the windows Device Manager to try to detect the iphone camera driver and install this way, but without success. Is there a way to get the AMD installed without having to return to x 32?

  Success! I completely uninstalled itunes again after uninstalling the 5 step and delete all files. Created a test administrator account, and then restarted. At a clean boot, and then restarted again. Then downloaded the new 10.1.2 itunes for 64-bit. Then installed itunes on the test account. It worked.

  Thanks to persevere on this with me.

  God bless you
