Cannot Install TI ver 9.0.2337

Can someone please help me...... I have just purchased and downloaded TI ver 9.0.2337 and cannot get it to install. After selecting Full installation just before all the files were installed I got a FATAL EXCEPTION ERROR quote:

"A fatal exception OE has occured at 0028:C02C0FBD in VXD IOS(04) + 00002031. The current application will be terminated.
* Press any key to terminate the current application.
* Press CTRL+ALT+DEL again to restart your computer. You will lose any unsaved information in all applications. Press any key to continue."

Windows rebooted and I then tried to Uninstall but Acronis TI did not appear in the add/remove programs list.

I then tried to Reinstall again and the installation appeared to go OK but I was still concerned about the original error message.

I then decided to Uninstall (went OK)/Reinstall again to try and get a one-off error free installation but the original error appeared again.

However, after rebooting I was again unable to Uninstall, as above, so I Reinstalled again but the program then froze up where the original error occured.

I was then in the position where I couldn't Uninstall but also I couldn't Reinstall.

I tried to work around the problem in "Safe Mode" with similar experience and at one stage the following message popped up:

"The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with the package. The error code is 2905."

When in "Safe Mode" I was finally able to Uninstall the program but now whenever I try to install in normal "Windows Mode" the installation freezes where the original error occured.

My computer specs are:
IBM P3 Laptop, 800Mz, 640Mb RAM, running WIN98 SE OS.

I am really dissappointed that this has happened with such a reported fine product. Any help to solve my dilema would be greatly appreciated.

 

Hi,

this error normally occurs as a result of a hardware conflict or a buggy driver. TrueImage adds a hardware device to your system and it could be a resource (IRQ) problem.

In this MS-Article http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...port/kb/articles/Q192/9/25.ASP&NoWebContent=1
is the renamig of the Sb16.vxd mentioned. Maybe this would work for you.

Can you give us more specified information about your hardware..?

Greetings

The USB Card could be your source of problems.

After you iron out your present situation with the help of Support, you may want to try again with the USB Card disabled. It may later prevent the externals to be seen by TI running from Rescue CD too. If that happens, you must connect the external direct to one of the original USB ports.

 

Sometimes the easiest way to get rid of such problems is to merely get rid of Win 98.

Best is to do a clean install of Win 2000, or Win XP, in another logical drive, but then you have to re-install all apps.

You could upgrade Win 98 in place, but that leads to a less clean Win 2000/Win XP installation.

I got rid of a number of problems by ditching Win 98 a few years ago.
