• Code error 0x7E - the file 'autorun.dll' could not be loaded or is damaged. Setup cannot continue. Windows 7 Upgrade installation problem

  I tried to install Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade, 32-bit version. My current system is an Intel iMac (later), with Windows XP - SP3 loaded as a virtual machine with Parallels Desktop 4.0 build 3848 (according to their website, it is supposed to support Windows 7).

  I allocated enough space RAM and HARD drive of the virtual machine to run Windows 7. No matter what I do, when I try to run setup.exe, I get the error message: "the file 'autorun.dll' could not be loaded or is corrupt. Setup cannot continue. Error code is [0x7E].

  The file 'autorun.dll' is present on the disk.

  I saw on the internet that other people have also had this problem, with or without Parallels Desktop, and get a replacement DVD of Windows 7 program made no difference to them. Nor is it an available answer, I've seen.

  My Windows 7 disc is new, so I was hoping that Microsoft could solve the problem for me?

  Thank you.

  
  

  
  

  OK, so, this response is a little late to come, but if you never solved...

  I just encountered the same problem - editing similar (Mac, Parallels 5 in my case, the SP3 of XP, MS Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade) - you must make sure that the DVDROM drive hardware is mapped to "D:" on your XP installation. Thus on the Parallels Desktop menu go to devices, CD/DVD1 and make sure that all your actual DVD player is called is selected (should be the vertical entry in the menu) - not true CD/DVD. The reader should then start and auto run.
  I hope this helps...

• Captivate 7 for Mac patch installation problems

  Was having a few problems getting 7 Captivate to recognize Microsoft PowerPoint and Word. Taking the advice I saw in another Adobe forum question and re-installed 7 Captivate. Of course 7 Captivate does not work on my Mac without 7-0-1 patch, but when I try to install the patch I get a pop-up message indicating that the administrator has removed the updates to my computer. Since I am the administrator and I didn't delete something, I think that this problem is due to my recent installation/upgrading to creative cloud for all my other Adobe applications.

  Anyone got any workaround for this?

  Hi Lydia,.

  Welcome to the Adobe Forums!

  Please go to Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdaterInventory/1.0/AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat

  Then copy and paste AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat to your desktop.

  Open AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat and change the value under the tag removed to "0".

  Now save the file and replace it with the file existing in Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdaterInventory/1.0.

  Now, rerun the update patch and see if it solves your problem or not.

• J3640 Win8/64 Installation problem

  I have Win 8 Pro (64-bit) (update Win 7).  J3640 installed and working for win7. After upgrade, he worked for a while, then I started getting errors in the library. I ran the full uninstall HP program and removed all occurrences of the printer.

  After you download the J3460 Installer, I ran the installation.  It works foreverrrrrrrrrrr and is never past the 'system Cheching' work (running using cpu/men, is not at a standstill).

  I ran through the troubleshooting suggestion to stop all services other than Microsoft, did reboots, etc., redownloaded the Installer (64-bit) and I get the same results.  When we look in the Task Manager, the installation process it says that I am performing a 32-bit installation?

  Any help will be appreciated...

  I'll have to do some research on this one.  I'll get back to you as soon as I find something.  In the meantime, try to use MS paint, or Windows Fax and Scan to scan.  You will not have as many options as you would with the software, but you should be able to analyze this way.  The document below will explain the complete process in detail.

• Connection of the USB camera - OR-IMAQ for USB cameras installation problems

  I tried to install the usb http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/5030 camera application

  Unfortunately it does not work. I don't know the usb icons in my function palette. can you help me please?

  I want to only connect a camera usb with labview. How can it be difficult. any help would be appreciated.

  see you soon

  Hello

  You first need to make sure that the USB camera is DirectShow compatible.  If it is not it will not work with the software of our vision. You must use the drivers IMAQdx (which requires a license) to acquire from a USB webcam.  Once you have installed the drivers IMAQdx (Vision Acquisition Software) and drivers that come with the webcam is installed, you should be able to see it able & Automation Explorer (MAX).  Once you can see it in MAX you can use it like any other device in LabVIEW.

• Upgrade for a Netbook XP installation problem

  I have a netbook (with no optical drive) on which I want to install Windows XP Home Edition.

  The drive I have is an upgrade version.

  The problem I have is that for some reason, the Netbook (even if the BIOS allows) will NOT start from an external DVD/CD drive, even when started he sees the drive and you can use it. Other computers boot this drive so I don't know what the problem is.

  I can obviously do a flashdrive bootable for installing XP - my concern is to provide the eligible product if the external optical drive is a little dubious - I have a copy of Windows 98 Second edition on a disc, which is a product qualifies for the upgrade.

  If the installation process does not see the CD drive when I am asked to insert the product calling it, how can I get around that?

  I tried a Windows 7 disc - would not start from that.

  I tried to boot from a floppy from Win 98 and formatting the HARD drive - still did not start.

  Finally, I started from a flashdrive bootable Ubuntu 10 and used GParted to delete the partition and recreate a partition FAT32 and Hey Presto! The cd of Windows XP started...

  In the process of installing XP as I write this.

  Thanks for the help!

• Problem of activating Windows 7: for the upgrade product key

  Hi there I had to replace my drive hard when he died, so I installed windows 7 on it instead of upgrade of vista because I never had a vista disk when I bought the laptop, but when I went to turn it on he told me that the key was invalid because it was only for the upgrade.  Is it possible to fix this problem or get a new free activation key since I already paid for the upgrade?

  You can reactivate your Windows 7 installation by doing the following:

  1. click on the Start button and in the box, type search: slui.exe 4

  2. press the Enter key on your keyboard.

  3. Select your country.

  4. follow the instructions for the activation of the telephone (toll-free).

• Flash Player installation problems - WinXP

  Hello

  I currently have v21.0.0.242 of Flash Player installed in Firefox on my Windows XP SP2 PC, but if I can download v22, it will not start in order for me to install it.

  I saw an article (#8) here: Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows 7 and earlier versions, but, even if it leads to a place at Microsoft Support to get an update of the file supposed to be necessary for SHA - 256 certificates, this isn't just for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, Windows XP.

  In addition, another thread in this Forum addresses the versions of Windows XP 64-bit, but mine is 32-bit.

  Finally, I heard talk about some recent software installers being configured in a way to WinXP can not read to launch, but I hope that's not true here, or that there is a workaround solution for that.

  Can you please help me with this?

  Thank you very much

  Bram Weiser

  I can't speak as to why the update is not eligible for your Vista system.  It would be a matter of Microsoft.

  I don't see Adobe take back a signing certificate less secure as we head to sha256, i.e. the last signature technologies safer. Microsoft also announced (just now) they are falling for the old version, sha1.  You will see this more, not with righteous installers, but with both sites (sites that use HTTPS instead of HTTP protocol).  If an HTTPS Web site uses a certificate that is always sha1 Microsoft will show the lock snapped during a visit to this page, instead of the secure lock.

  You can try to opt in the background updates to see if it works.  To do this, go to control panel > all items in the control panel > Flash Player > updated tab > select "allow Adobe to install updates (recommended).

• Options to upgrade to internal hard drive on laptop computer dv2000t (installation problems)

  I need to replace a failed hard drive in my laptop dv2000t of 2006.  The drive I'm replacing was already a replacement car from the original 80 GB drive came with the laptop.  The first replacement 3 years ago (2008) was a 200 GB drive, which worked well for about 3 years.  But he just crashed (apparently).  I received warnings of imminent failure in 'Smart' car a week before, and then it finally is more start.  Subsequent tests on the extract disk show it as having failed in many sectors.

  I had no problem to order a spare for the first time in 2008, restore a backup image to original disk Acronis, installation, etc.  Everything went well in 2008.   So I assumed that all would be gone smoothly for yet another replacement and upgrade.

  In 2008, the drive I ordered was a W.D. (Western Digital, stick with the same brand as the original) disk SATA 2.5 inch 5400 RPM (200 GB).  It's a SATA (I) (1.5 Gbit/s interface).

  The first disc I ordered recently (March 2011) was a W.D 2.5 inch SATA II (3.0 Gbps interface) 500 GB 7200 RPM (from 'Black Scorpion' line of W.D.).   Got the disc image disc to it and she came to the laptop.  Unfortunately, at the start and after the screen BIOS, all I get is a black screen with a white cursor blinking fast at the top of the screen.  Apparently by car is not recognized by the computer?  Then I did some reading in some online forums and found some references on this laptop is made not with the capacity of disks more or 320 GB with 7200 RPM drives (because they're hotter than 5400 drives).  And finally, references to the SATA interface speed.  I ordered a 2nd drive, W.D "Scorpio Blue" line, this time above a 5400 RPM 320 GB drive (but still SATA II).  Same story, still does not work.  So I decided that maybe the question was the SATA speed.  So I found someone who still had a SATA plus old (1.5 Gbps) W.D. drive in stock.  It's a W.D. SATA 250 GB (no longer manufactured).  It should arrive in a few days - and I hope this one works!

  I would like to get some sort of confirmation on the white flashing cursor on the black screen at startup.  Is this typicalif the system could not find a bootable hard drive?  Also, is this SATA or SATA-II issue a probable cause of my problem?   I'm sure that there is nothing wrong with the new drives themselves and images restored on them, as readers will be installed them and available when I plug them in as external drives on my other computer.

  I was able to solve my hard drive installation problems.  It turns out that there is no problem with any of these new replacement discs, I ordered (thinking I had ordered some readers with the wrong specs).  It was a simple solution to the problem.  Restored readers were not start because there is no MBR (Master Boot Record) on the disks after restoring from disk images.

  I use Acronis True Image Home 2011 as my (backup) disk imaging software.  And I just did not understand how to restore properly backed up images on a new hard drive.  I had done everything right except that I had not checked the box to 'restore the MBR' - both do not understand what it was or what it means.  Once I checked this box and reimagee the new drive, it worked fine.
