starting Windows Installer Serv under msconfig?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm making my way through

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/824643

due to issues with .NET 1.1 installation, and have come to the point of

doing a clean boot (Manually remove and then reinstall the .NET Framework

1.1, point 6)

Here's the problem:

'When you use Msconfig.exe in diagnostic mode, reenable the Windows

Installer Service on the Services tab.'

But, when I do this, it tells me that either 'Plug and Play' or another

service is unavailable.

 

Anyone know which basic services need to run to get this going?

The only Services that you need to disable are 'antivirus programs and

all firewall programs'. Leave the MS Services alone.

Thanks. That was not made clear in the kb item.

 

However, no matter what I try I still return to the error message I've

been getting for some time now.

 

"Error creating process <C:\DOCUME~1\resitsb.CYC.001\Local Settings\Temp

\XIP000.TMP\cleanup.exe>. Reason: C:\WINDOWS\system32\advpack.dll"

(or some variation on that with the exe file or exact temp path.

 

The advpack.dll is there, its version is 7.0.6000.16512

(vista_gdr.070625-1522)

So this is a Vista issue, correct ? Being that this is an XP newsgroup,

perhaps you should post this issue to a Vista NG.

If you want to consult "the" source for .NET Framework installation

issues please see:

No - XP. I thought that odd too.

Anyway, I'll follow up the .NET link. THanks.

Re: starting Windows Installer Serv under msconfig?

 

advpack.dll should be at V. 6.0.2900.2180 in XP

Suggest you check in WINDOWS\system32\dllcache and see if that Version

exists there

If so, replace the one in system32 with the proper Version
