Slipstreamed XP SP2 crashes on install

I slipstreamed XP SP2 onto a CD and upon install I get this message...
A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer
UNMOUNTABLEBOOTVOLUME
Any suggestions?

Try booting again from the CD, then select the R option in the first menu and you will end up in the Recovery Console. A black screen where you will select your Windows installation and be asked for the administrator password.
Then run:
chkdsk
or
chkdsk /r
if you suspect you have bad sectors in your hard drive.
Then, reboot and let Windows Setup start again

Crash when installed on system that formerly had Pinnacle hardware

Encore 2.0 (but not 1.5) consistantly crashes when installed on a
system which has the RALcodec codec installed (My system is a dual 2.8 Ghz Xeon Dell under Windows XP SP2). This codec is installed by a variety of Pinnacle hardware installations such as the DC-1000 and DC-2000. It remains active on the system even after removal of these devices. The symptom is an Application Error after about 20 minutes and the usual offer to send info to Microsoft, even if Encore is simply opened and a empty project created.
The solution is to rename the Ralcodec and associated files:
Cachex.dll
FXlib.dll
MedMan.dll
MLPagAX.dll
RALCodec.dll
RALCtrl.cpl
RALMain.dll
from the C:\Windows\system32 directory, reboot and then delete them.
Of course your DC-2000 won't work anymore but that is probably not
an issue.
Some other details in case anyone cares: The Pinnacle software
is loaded by Encore because Encore enumerates all installed
codecs. When loaded, the Pinnacle software
creates a hidden window called AudioInputWnd and then listens
for various Windows messages on this window. This processing
goes on in the background while Encore is running and eventually
results in the app crash. Note that 3 years ago, when using
Premiere 6.5 with the Pinnacle DC-2000 I used to get occasional
crashes when exiting Premiere. The error message displayed at
that time referenced AudioInputWnd as well. So it appears
that even back then, with Premiere 6.5, there was a problem with the Pinnacle software.
The crash of Encore 2.0 doesn't produce a message explicitly
referencing AutioInputWnd but under Windbg you can
see that the software is dispatching a message received from that
window's queue. When RALcodec is removed, the AudioInputWnd
is not even created anymore when Encore is run.
I would note that Adobe support was unable to solve this problem and
suggested the usual unhelpful littany of reinstallation of Encore and
to update the video drivers when I first called it in 3 months ago. Another person, Dave Shriver also reported essentially identical problems in the Encore forum back in Februrary. The root cause appears to have actually existed in the Adobe certified bundle of Premiere 6.0/6.5 with the DC-2000 before resurfacing in the present form with Encore 2.0.

The simplest way to reinstall iPhoto and iMovie is to download Pacifist and then extract the relevant applications from the Software Restore Discs.
Pacifist comes with instructions; this is not a difficult operation and there is no need for erase & install to recover the applications.
Pacifist is Shareware, but you need not pay the fee in order to use it. Every time that you open Pacifist you will be prompted to purchase a licence. If you feel that Pacifist is worth the money (and I think that it is), you can purchase a licence at any stage.
If you're a plonker like me, then purchasing a licence will provide justification for third party developers like CharlesSoft to save the day for the rest of us.
Good luck!

ITunes crashing on Install

Hi,
ITunes is crashing on install right when the splash screen with the girl and guy by the river appears, and the message "Conguring ITunes appears". I have had some previous Xp installations on the same drive which i suspect may be the problem, but I have removed all previous iTunes related files and even cleaned iTunes references from the registry. I actually only need quicktime and not ITunes so this is very frustrating. I am on Xp Sp2 with all the latest updates. Also Im running a dual core pentium if that makes a difference.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Slipstreaming XP64 SP2 on MAC Pro

I'm trying to create an XP64 SP2 install CD by slipstreaming my SP2 CD with my XP64 install. I've done this before with XP Pro (32bit version) and was sucessful.
This time when I try to integrate sp2 with XP64 I get the following error:
"Update.exe is not a valid win32 application"
I've done online "googling" and have not yet found a solution. If I could get this to work, I'd be able to install XP64 w/sp2 through Bootcamp.

Hi,
have a look at the procedure described here: http://www.start64.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=705&Itemid=98
Good Luck

My iPhoto keeps crashing after installing the latest update, can't do anything!

My iPhoto keeps crashing after installing the latest update, can't do anything! It used to crash when importing but now I'm at the point where I open the software and after 2 seconds it crashes (nothing connected either). What to do? Can't access any photos

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If you can create a new library and import some test photos then the problem lies with your original library.
If that's the case make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If iPhoto crashes while trying to create a new library then try this:
Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
If that fails to help a reinstall of iPhoto is indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,
Click to view full size
Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all relavant updaters.
P.S. If you're still running Tiger, 10.4.6, then the above may not apply. If you're running a newer system you should update your profile so we have a better idea of where you're at.

Imac Intel freezin & crashing since installing lion

My late 2009 24" iMac has been freezin and crashing since installing lion. Sometimes red dots appear on the display and sometimes the image breaks up and then freezes. Happens in Safari, Photoshop, Word and other programs. Is it a NVIDIA driver issue? Is there a fix?

I don't know if this helps, but OS X Lion has to re-index all of the files (correct me if I'm wrong), therefore, if you have just installed OS X Lion, you need to give it some time untill it has indexed all the files again (which could take a while if you have loads of files), after this it should return to normal.
Otherwise, a clean install?

Dead iPad 1 crashed when installing iOS 5.1

Hi
My iPad 1 64 /3G which has all the regular crashing abilities discussed on this forum has finally died
It crashed whilst installing iOS 5.1
It will not restart , the battery is showing critical low level despite 24hrs of charging
Can any body help ? I have tried holding both buttons several times, it starts then shuts down after showing the low battery symbol, despite being on its proper power mains supply
Does not respond at all when connected to iTunes.

I had the same problem and was ready to throw It in the trash. Last night I erased my iPad and set it up as new iPad instead of restoring. I didn't turn on iCloud until after I deleted my iCloud backup and turned off contact syncing with it. Since then it hasn't crashed and it has had about 4 hours of use. 5.0.1 didn't have an effect on it. Just happy I got my iPad back!

My macbook pro crashed after installing maverick. I lost all my photos however the iPhone iPhoto app still has these photos so how can i access the package contents to recover these photos?

My macbook pro crashed after installing maverick. I lost all my photos however the iPhone iPhoto app still has these photos so how can i access the package contents to recover these photos?

We'll need to know more to beable to help. Do you want to try to restore your photos from your iPhone to your Mac, or try to recover the photos from the old iPhoto Library on your Mac?
What is the situation of your Mac now? In hat way did it crash? A hardware problem with the drive? Does the system not start properly? Does iPhoto not launch? Do you still have the iPhoto Library on your mac or a backup, so we could try to rescue the photos there?
What versions of iPhoto are on your iPhone and your Mac?
however the iPhone iPhoto app still has these photos so how can i access the package contents to recover these photos?
On the iPhone you cannot access the "package contents" - IOS hides the file system from the users. To restore photos from your phone share all iPhoto photos to your Camera Roll, that are not already in the Camera Roll, and then connect the iPhone via USB and import the Camera Roll to iPhoto or Image Capture. Or use any of the other sharing methods described on thos manual page: see: Ways to share photos http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnk7d8f763e
To retrieve photos from a corruptrd iPhoto Library on your Mac we need to know the version number and more about the "crash" you experienced, the state of your mac, the system, the data. Please post back with more details.

Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box (similar to those given above) are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Entourage crash after installing update 10.6.4

Entourage 2008 keeps crashing after installing 10.6.4. The problem seems to be the database. I have tried rebuilding the database, I have copied it, I have moved it: nothing works. Please advise!

It might help to reset the connection settings on your Mac using these steps one at a time until the problem is resolved, recognizing that, depending on your problem, not all of these steps will make sense:
1) Use the AirPort menu bar item to turn AirPort off, then on again.
2) Try to select your Wi-Fi network from the AirPort menu.
3) In the Network panel of System Preferences delete the AirPort item from the left column, then add it back.
4) In the same panel as (3), define a new location and see if you can make that work.
5) In the same panel, select the AirPort connection item, click the "Advanced" button, select the "TCP/IP" tab, then click "Renew DHCP Lease".
6) In the folder /Library/Preferences ( _not_ <yourhomefolder>/Library/Preferences), move the folder SystemConfiguration onto the Desktop, then restart your computer. See if you can now make your AirPort connection work.
These steps may not help, but they'll only take a couple of minutes to try. Before you try these, if you have any special network settings on your Mac for things like DSL credentials, note all your network settings, because the latter steps will destroy them. If you got all the way to the last step, if things don't work any worse than before, you can trash the saved SystemConfiguration folder.

Crash when installing Oracle9i on Windows

If you have a crash when installing oracle9i on Win 2000
(for example The instruction at "0x77fca30c" referenced memory blah blah blah), the problem could be your classpath.
Try the following in a command window:
cd Disk1 (or wherever you have unzipped oracle)
set CLASSPATH=
setup
I guess it is a bug in the installer. I didn't try to isolate it, my classpath is too big!

I just checked this again, at work, on my 2000 machine. I changed my locale to saudia arabia and that resulted in the alignment you mentioned earlier. I switched it back to its default english - united states and the alignment is no loner at the right.
In addition to that my nls_lang setting is :
AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
Note though, that simply changing the locale did it for me, regardless of my nls_lang setting.

CC is crashing during install on my macbook.

CC is crashing during install on my macbook. What can I do to resolve this and install CC successfully?

I have a new Macbook Pro (purchased from apple 2 months ago) with OS X Yosemite. Creative Cloud was working perfectly and I downloaded a free trial of Photoshop CC. After the trial ended, not only photoshop CC, but, CC in general stopped working and so I deleted it all in hopes of being able to re-download CC and then buy Photoshop CC. However, I've tried to reinstall CC numerous times (about 15-20 attempts) and it repeatedly crashes during the installation process.
