(Needless to say that at compaq/HP have no clue whatsoever) Hint 1 - It is the Installshield front-end that is failing. Closing down any running apps, including those in the background, antivirus scanners, mouse drivers, etc, etc, might help. Hint 2 - If you still can't get it to work, the following link is the same driver version AFTER the installshield front-end has dumped the files into a folder C:\swsetup (but you can put the folder anywhere you want it) and then install it. http://69.36.189.159/usr_1034/sp23138.zip |

thanks for your reply
unfortunately the installshield works file and extracts the archive with no problems - problem is that launching setup.exe from C:\swsetup nothing happens ... |

Opps, sorry, you plainly stated that but i was preoccupied with something else. The driver appears to need admin rights to install, are you logged in as administrator? It also appears to be a US-only version, if you are installing on non-US system you might need to edit the SP23138.cva file, manually adding entries for IT similar to those for US or just replace "US" with "IT" everywhere you see it. I"m not certain that will, could work but is worth a try. |
