Default Dell AIO Center Software not installing

I have Vista RC2 and am trying to install my Dell Photo 964 printer along
with its necessary software, the All In One Center. That software doesn't
install and neither does the photo software. I don't get any errors during
installation but those parts of the software just aren't there after the
installation ends. I don't mind the photo software so much but the AIO
Center allows access to settings unavailable from the printer's control
panel. Has anyone here been able to successfully install the Dell software?

TIA

Tom Lake

Did you try right-clicking on the setup file to install in compatibility
mode?

this reply only to alt.sys.pc-clone.dell, where it was read.

here is a similar discussion of the same issue re lexmark (not dell branded)
printers...
http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/...7656&SiteID=17
it is worth a read because the possible work around solutions are the same
and because most dell printers are lexmark made.
this site lists users contributions of compatible and incompatible vista
hardware and software... the dell 922 aio appears on the list of support
software for build 5472. you could try that with your printer.

let us know what if anything you figure out to make it work.

Yes I did but the problem seems to be that the setup program unpacks a
number of other files and executes those but deletes them before it finishes
running so there's nothing left behind so I can't change the compatibility
for those. Thanks for responding, though!
