"Windows Setup cannot continue because a required driver could not be installed" while improving to 64-bit
I'm trying to install windows 7 64 on a 32-bit with the custom installation option. All is well until that right at the end of the installation it gives me this error "Windows Setup cannot continue because a required driver could not be installed. I tried this several times but the same results. I used the windows Upgrade Advisor to see if my computer is compatible and it is no problem.

Restore the previous installation of Windows and do the following:
1 disable any security software before you attempt to upgrade or do a clean install.
2. make sure that your computer is updated (devices and applications)
3. disconnect all external devices before installing.
4. check your hard disk for errors:
Click Start
Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
Click on "Run as Administrator"
At the command prompt, type: chkdsk /r
When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.
In addition, run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, it will scan your system and provide a report telling you if your PC can run Windows 7, and if there is no compatibility problems with your hardware or programs.

"SQL Server 2005 Setup cannot continue because the installation package could not be opened."
Hi, I use a 64 bit OS on my computer and I have a problem. AdminStudio gives an error message when running this program.
"SQL Server 2005 Setup cannot continue because the installation package could not be opened. The installation package has a missing file, or you run a single installer 32 bit on a 64-bit computer. To continue, verify the SQL Server 2005, you use the package is supported on WOW64. If you are sure that you are running a SQL Server 2005 supported packages, and you continue to see this message, contact the vendor of the application. »
What can I do about?
Thank you!
Hello again,
Thanks, I solved this problem. This program installs 32-bit as the default value in the path of the folder. This is why it does not work when everyone works beginning... But there is a solution for this topic...
Exactly the solution:

Note:
SQLEXPR32. EXE is a smaller package that can be used to install SQL Server Express on 32-bit operating systems only.
The larger SQLEXPR. EXE package supports installation on 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems (WOW install).

I have windows xp 32-bit. I have a LifeCam VX-1000. I do not have the CD, but when I plugged it the first time, Microsoft Wizard found the driver and installed it without a problem.
Ran fine for 2 months, then I plugged it in today, I got the "new hardware found". First OFF... what happened to the driver? I have not installed anything new. And then, it will not re-intsaller driver. He invites me for a CD when I try to update the driver through the Device Manager, and when I try to run LifeCam 3.22, I've downloadedMicrosoft , he says "Setup cannot continue because the downloaded file was not signed digitally by Microsoft. "Please try again later." WTF? I downloaded from microsoft. How could he not be digitally signed by microsoft?
How to get back the 'life' in my LifeCam?

· Did you do changes on the computer before the show?
Follow these methods.
Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.
Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable the antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network at the time the anti-virus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot state to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

Satellite P300 - 18 M - Windows Setup cannot continue
Hi, my first post here, hoping for any help.
I recently bought a Satellite P300 - 18 M, from an independent retailer with no return policy. good on the PC is a brand new, sealed, etc and I get the Toshiba standard warranty.
When I do the initial installation I received a message all in settng upward of Windows Vista Home "the computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error." Windows Setup cannot continue. To install windows click on 'OK' to restart the computer announced then rstart installation. »
I tried a few times more full-time catering and the third HARD drive it installed, but...
either he starts, I get to the password screen then all invent locks, the mouse pointer freezes then the screen becomes full of horizontal lines.or
I've had a few times in windows for a few minutes (2-5 minutes) then the mouse pointer freezes, 3 seconds later the entire screen is full of horizontal lines, everything locked can only turn off the coast.
Toshiba software error, so no warranty claim and advised that I buy the DVD (£29.90) that I ordered it, on a delivery of 14 days of recovery.Any other help or suggestions much appreciated as im not confident of this DVD, being a brand new sealed unit, why corript of Vista in the first place.
Thanks in advance
Andy
Hello
In my view, that the P300 is equipped with the ability to drive HARD recovery. This means that you could restore the operating system of the image that is stored on the HARD drive.
To do this, you will need to power the laptop and must press the F8 key.A start menu should appear, then you should choose the first option called fix my computer.
Then, you must choose the option called Toshiba HDD recover or something like that. It should be the last option.
This procedure helps you reinstall Vista again.
This facility could be that you can burn the own recovery disk using the preinstalled software called Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.But if the recovery of HARD drive does not work you will need to use your orderly recovery DVDs and have to restore it again.
If the laptop will not properly work after using Recovery then DVDs I recommend to contact the ASP again and to explain the whole story.Good luck

Hi, Mary
I'm using the Enterprise version that it froze during installation, so I waited around 9-10 Minutes still nothing
so I started keys at random because I was waiting for a long time then restarted my PC and now I can't start my pc.>:-( >:-( >:-( >:-(
Boot from the Windows 8 DVD or USB media that you created
Click Install now
Accept the license agreement
When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 8 click Next.
You will receive the following warning:
The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.
(At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK
The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.
Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.
You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

I have this error message and called technical support from microsoft, we have tried to reinstall Vista again once I had tried three times with the same error message. It would freeze to "complete installation." even let him all night to see if he needed more time to complete on its own, but nothing helps...the technician told me I have a hardware problem, but when I installed XP on it everything works correctly.
It's a new pc and a clean install of Home premium. I re-post this question since yesterday
Hi evan9074,
So was the question then? You can run the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor to see if there are compatibility issues that you have with hardware or software that would prevent an upgrade to Windows Vista.
I hope this helps.

How can I configure my windows 7 after restoring my laptop to the factory conditians?
My laptop had a blue screen and I couldn't get rid of it, I went into safe mode and restore my computer to factory conditions. When the computer says "the installation program starts services" you stop and I couldn't turn it back on for 15 minutes. When I turned on and tried to contained my setup, a message keeps poping up "the computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error." Windows Setup cannot continue. To install windows, click ok to restart the computer, and then restart the installation. "But no mader, how many times I reboot my laptop, the same message appears. What should I do? I've restored my computer several times and never had this problem.You should try another recovery.
New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.
If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

I'm doing a clean install of windows xp C:\i386 professional. I can't work around the error above.
Assuming that the file is good:
- Mount the drive in another computer Windows XP.
- Move the folder i386 on the disk.
- Format the drive FAT32
- Bring the i386 on the disk file.
- Start the computer with a Windows 98 boot CD
- Run \i386\Winnt.exe
- Once Windows is installed, you can convert the FAT32 to NTFS drive.
Windows XP not reformatted partitions greater than 32 GB in FAT32, you can keep the score at this size or less. If you want a partition larger than 32 GB, you can use the Windows 98 boot cd to prepare the drive and format it FAT32.
Fdisk can choke on the logical drives NTFS tools as Delpart.exe can cope with this, or you can use the Windows XP disk management tool to remove the partitions on the drive before using the Fdisk and W98 startup disk.
To start the disk management tool type diskmgmt.msc in the box run from the start menu. Windows XP cannot format disks over 32 GB FAT32, but it can ride greater than 32 GB FAT32 drives which have been prepared by other operating systems.
These will be useful:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315349
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/307848/en-usYou can get a CD to start Windows 98 .iso image here: http://www.allbootdisks.com/download/iso.html
Download the Windows 98SE you without a RAMDrive (Win98SEnoram_bootdisk.iso) it has no Smartdrv and without it, it will take Winnt forever to copy files.
Make sure that you have the Windows XP product key before do you all this! Without the key, you will not be able to install Windows. The key can be extracted from the registry if necessary.
