LV8.0 install Fatal Error message

I made the time to install my LV8.0 upgrade, and during the initial portion of the install, the message - Fatal Error!! Required MSI directory property PersonalFolder is in an invalid location "D:\docs\" - is displayed and the install halts. Drive D is the CD drive. Any ideas what may be wrong? What is the error message referring to? There is no opportunity to make any location selections prior to, or after the error message. I am currently running LV7.1 trouble free.
Thanks for any insight.

Hi, Quickbeam.
At first glance, it sounds like your CD may have become damaged or there is a problem with the CD drive. Some CD drives are more tolerant than others -- are you able to get past this step if you try it in another drive? It's also worth trying to copy the whole CD to the hard drive and then installing from there.
Let me know what happens!

  • HT1925 I am getting a fatal error message when I try to un install itunes from Control Panel on my PC, so now I cannot un install it at all, any suggestions?

    I need to un install itunes on my PC. I have windows XP. when I go into my control panel and select to un install it goes through the proper steps then gives me a fatal error message and therefore cannot remove it. Any suggestions?

    That sounds like a permissions problem. Vista uses that Trusted Installer account to install software. I don't know why it wouldn't have the correct permissions, though.
    Make sure you have FULL control over all the C: drive, and try turning off UAC during the install:

  • Install Fatal Error

    I'm encountering a fatal error when I attempt to install Expressions studio. I have the log if that helps. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times and keep getting the same fatal error message.

    This is a user-to-user forum. We have no technical support materials. We're just users.
    This is a problem limited to your machine, so we have no way to help with that.
    It could be that your download is corrupted (you're not installing as you download, are you?). Other than that we'd be in the dark.
    Your best bet is to search online for the exact error message or error number.

  • Receiving "Fatal Error" message when attempting to burn BluRay

    I have completed a BluRay project and am trying to burn to a BluRay.  The process goes fine until it starts the burn process.  The project is about 19g and I am ttrying to burn to a 25g bluray BD-R.  It takes about 6 hours to go through the process.  When the progress meter shows 100%, it goes into the burn process and after only a few minutes, I receive a "Fatal Error" message and that's it, no further messages and nothing written to the bluray.  I end up clicking on the "cancel" button which takes me back to the project.
    Running Elements 7.0 on Windows 7 with plenty of horsepower.  Can give specifics if someone thinks that could be the problem.  Is there a way to burn the HD project to the computer and then use other software to burn to my Bluray internal burner??

    Hi All,
    I have a similar error with the config details below.
    The work-around that I found was to end all processes that have nothing to do with PrE - especially McAfee and GoogleDeskTop stuff (sorry if I am getting close to the line citing names - but it does seem to be related) and to put PrE in high priority using the Windows Task Manager / Processes facility.
    This solution does work even with chapters although I have not yet been able to burn a BD with menus yet - this may be due to the version 4.0 of PrE that I am using.
    My issue was all the more frustrating in that my project lasting approx 90mins in realtime was taking approx 25hrs (> 1 day) to render to AVCHD, And after rendering, the Fatal Error msg appeared but PrE was locked and the only way to get out was to end process PrE and restart Windows - no intermediary AVCHD file was saved so I had repeated this process several times over a week before finding this solution after reading this website,
    What a shame; I had bought a new powerful laptop with PrE 4.0 and a BD writer pre-installed and yet it seems to hard to get a basic BD !!
    In case it can be of interest, I compared burning BDs using AVCHD and MPEG-2 (1920X1020) and, on my 40"LCD I cannot really see any difference in quality. As the MPEG-2 renders and burns in approx 1/10th time of AVCHD, I think that I'll be sticking to this compression.
    Here are the details of the system:
    Intel Pentium CoreDuo 2.26GHz
    Windows Vista
    4Gb DDR2
    500Gb internal drive with over 50% free
    Source HDV footage stored on external 320Gb HDD via USB2.
    PrE4.0
    I hope that this helps.

  • GIANT complaint - apps freeze, fatal error message, unable to restore

    I don't know where to complain, so I'm just doing it here. I went to the apple store to resolve my problems, and whatever they did only fixed them for about a day. They came back the very next day.
    I'm not sure I can articulate just how much I hate my iPhone since July 2008. I came to rely on it for google maps, the internet, my e-mail, etc. And now, ever since that super crappy update I can't rely on it for anything. Maps works about 25% of the time, and all of the applications freeze and don't work. I used to love this thing and now I just want to throw it out a window. I keep getting a fatal error message when I try to upgrade to the 2.0.2 as well... and it won't install... so I can't even do a restore of the phone. By the way, I have restored my phone about once a week every week since the big upgrade in July, which seems to prevent the applications from crashing for at least a few days. I can use this thing as an iPod, as a text messaging tool, and as a phone. The rest of the features, since July, have come to be completely useless to me as I can't rely on them.
    Message was edited by: Host <to add symptoms to title to increase chances of assistance>

    Here is the key.
    Do not use the App store within the iPhone to buy or update Apps. It will brick your iPhone. It will cause all sorts of instability with the rest of the OS.
    Use iTunes for that purpose.

  • I was referred to this site when I looked for answers to why I got Fatal Error message with error code c0000005 when trying to upload photos to my computer. I see that someone else asked the same question, 90 people viewed but no answer given?

    I was referred to this site when I got Fatal Error message Error code c0000005 while trying to upload photos to computer. Someone else asked the same question in this forum, 90 people viewed the question but it was never answered?

    It looks to me like it is a problem on your Windows computer not being able to start an application. See the following link to Microsoft Community support (although the specifics of the problem in that case may not be applicable) and also note all of the "Related Content" at the upper right side of that link (and there may be others if you search that forum). http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-system/the-applicatio n-is-unable-to-start-correctly/bbb9c037-77b3-4fae-93b9-ded70f7f9a17
    It may help if you know or can determine which program Windows is trying to open when you upload photos -- there can be many different ones and it can be set by the user. If you are using Windows 7, you may need to check your Autoplay settings. There are some instructions in the following link that may help and that discuss how you can use Windows Explorer to manually transfer the photos: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

  • LR4 won't install.  Error message

    I just bought LR4 and it won't install. 
    Error message reads: Operation could not be completed. (com.apple.installer.pagecontroller error-1.) Couldn't open "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.pkg".
    My operating system is: Mac OS X Version 10.5.8
    Please advise asap.

    btw, I bought the CD version. 
    Lr window opens up upon instering the CD with the the "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.pkg" icon (with the picture of the brown box) and the "Lightroom 4 Readme.pdf" icon.  That's as far as I can get.
    When I click on the .pkg I get the error message.

  • "Printer cartridges not installed correctly" error message

    HP Tech Support and HP Envy Users, Still getting the "Printer cartridges not installed correctly" error message for no good reason and it's July 2015! HP should have fixed this problem a long time ago based on the date of the posts from users. And/or corrected the misleading error message, as the users did install them correctly. I didn't get an installation error message when I installed my cartridges and I have been able to print successfully on this current set of cartridges. My error message appeared out of the blue. I've done all the troubleshooting steps except replace BOTH cartridges. I will do that. If the error message goes away once I've replaced one or both cartridges, HP should have long provided an update that says, "replace ink cartridges" and not the misleading one of not being installed correctly. If that doesn't clear up the problem, I will call HP as it's still under warranty. Hope I didn't get one of the "lemons" that require servicing.

    Can't open PDFs, Initially received runtime error,updated Reader - new error Adobe Reader has stopped working, uninstalled re-installed same error message Adobe Reader has stopped working

    Assuming that you are in Win (which you haven't said), you can try using this tool to first remove all traces of previous versions of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, download the full offline Reader installer from

    and run it immediately after restarting your computer.

  • What is going on with the FATAL error message????

    What is going on with the FATAL error message????

    Same issue, since last night. Can't sign in to iTunes, download apps, or updates to apps on any device. I have iPhone 4S, iPad mini, MacBook Pro. East coast, writing this at 1:21pm EST. Changing password doesn't work. I can't log in with my iCloud address either. I have however noticed at least that if  I enter the wrong password, I just get the incorrect password message. Using the right password gets the FATAL:: message every time.
    I have my devices set to UK for the region even though I am in the US. Though that might have something to do with it so I switched to US- no change, same problem.
    I agree that acknowledgement via their system status would be appropriate. Irritating that they are not at least publicly acknowledging there is a problem. I would feel much less concerned if I knew that they were aware and working on it. Can't find a support number anywhere but I did send a brief message via their help/contact page.
