Unable to install GEAR driver set

When install intunes on my laptop then I got the error report as below:
"Unable to install the GEAR driver set at this time. The GEARAspiWDM service used by the GEAR driver set is scheduled to be deleted during the next system reboot. Please reboot the system and run itunes again."
ALso try to search solution from several forum but this is highlighted with CAUTION because it change registry on system:

Anyone have other solution to solve this? please help.
Thanks

If you're worried about messing up GEAR, you might try reinstalling it:

Presuming that doesn't help, go ahead and remove it per that article you found, but just backup your registry first, just to be safe:

  • Installing 7.2. Says "Unable to install the gear driver set at this time...

    Hello, Im trying to Install ITunes 7.2, and I get this error:
    "Unable to install the gear driver set at this time. The GEARAspiWDM service use by the GEAR driver set is scheduled to be deleted during the next system reboot. Please reboot the system and run itunes again"
    I am installing ITunes for the very first time on my comp, cuz I just received a new 2GB Nano.
    I've tried rebooting,tried uninstalling my Quicktime and removing it from my comp, uninstalled and cleaned any remnants of previous ITunes using the windows cleaner, disabling both my mcafee and pccillin, and it still comes up with the error.
    I'd be indebted to any suggestions or resolutions!
    Thank you!

    Hi there, i had the exact same problem and posted a thread a few above yours, and these forums wasnt much help nobody replied, so i did a bit of research and followed all the intructions on this site: http://www.gearsoftware.com/cfknowledgebase/articledisplay.cfm?articleid=296
    If you follow the steps very carefully and do as each says, this will solve your problem.. Now i am very happy i can actually install iTunes and use it for my iPod.
    Remember to be carefully with the steps as the things you will be deleting are very important to your comp.

  • "Unable to install the GEAR driver set at this time...."

    Hello, I have been having trouble installing iTunes. I uninstalled it because I wasn't able to put songs on my iPod. And when I tried to reinstall it, I got this error:
    "Unable to install the GEAR driver set at this time. The GEARAspiWDM service use by the GEAR driver set is scheduled to be deleted during the next system reboot. Please reboot the system and run iTunes again"
    First off, I don't even have iTunes installed any more. Second, I don't know what the heck the GEAR driver is.
    Please help!

    When you get this message, you may need to manually remove your gear drivers, see the following post which links to full instructiosn:

    It requires editing the registry so be careful.

  • "Unable to install the GEAR driver set." in Vista Premium solution!

    If you're getting the "Unable to install the GEAR driver set." error, go into regedit, navigate to HKEYLOCALMACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesGearAspiWDM and delete the DeleteFlag key. Run the iTunes upgrade/setup package and iTunes should install correctly.
    If you get an error about explorer.exe being open, use the Tasks section of Task Manager to stop the explorer.exe application.

    Is this 64 or 32 bit Vista?

  • HP Envy 5532 Printer - unable to install a driver with full functionality

    Hi we have purchased a HP Envy 5532 all-in-one and were advised (and as stated on the packaging) that it will print 2 sided automatically.
    So far we have followed the instructions on various sites but we do not appear to have the option in the printer's Preferences  to be able to select 2 sided printing from the drop down list on the layout screen as there is no drop down list in there to select from as illustrated in the screen grab below:
    The options to the left of the screen grab allow me to select a manual 2 sided option where it will prompt us to reload the paper manually but no automatic options?
    Our operating system is: Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit and we have been on www.hp.com and downloaded the appropriate driverfor this environment.
    The driver currently installed is: HP Envy 5530 Series Class Driver - the driver would not install off the disk which came with the printer so this was the recommended official download via the HP website
    We have run the HP Print and Scan Doctor supplied on HP Connected it found issues with the driver "the Driver does not have full functions installed" and attempted to download a fully featured driver - this has failed again and again.... to load
    We then downloaded and ran the "HP Installation failure unknown device" application and followed this to the letter 5 times!!! all this did was to stop the printer working at all. It ran until the install stage and then it keeps coming up unable to install on network - the printer is there on our network with an IP address???
    We disabled all Firewalls and ran the install without any start up items running via misconfig options as directed but still it fails at the same point on installation.
    We had to uninstall all HP drivers and let the PC "add a printer" via the Control Panel options which it has and we are able to print again but we do not have full functionality as we still can not print automatic 2 sided copies and when we run HP Print and Scan Doctor it still recognises that we do not have full functionality!!!
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks  Steve

    @Steve_Reeder, welcome to the Community
    I read through your post about how you do not have access to the full software and options for your Envy 5532, as the Full Feature driver is not installing successfully on your Windows 8.1 system. I saw that you have tried various troubleshooting steps, such as a Clean Boot (msconfig), the Print and Scan Doctor, etc.
    I will do my best to make some helpful suggestions to you to try out.
    It seems as though you are trying to install on your network, could you possibly try installing the printer as a USB connection, and afterwards converting the USB connection to wireless through the HP software (applies to wireless connection and not ethernet)? If you're installing ethernet, skip this suggestion.
    You could also try installing the printer under a Clean Boot (msconfig) and turn off your firewall, under a new user account with Admin Privileges, to see if that will work.
    Another idea would be to run the System File Checker to see if this scan will pick up any issues:
    Using System File Checker to Restore System Files
    Please let me know your findings thus far, and if you notice any error messages or codes, let me know all of the details.
    I hope to hear from you, enjoy your Wednesday

  • Agere Ethernet Controller (ET-131x) - unable to install the driver

    I need to install the following wired NIC:
    01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Agere Systems|ET-131x PCI-E Ethernet Controller (unknown)
    It seems that the "et131x" kernel module is necessary.
    The web site bellow gives instructions on how to install the driver from sources:
    http://dadams1969.googlepages.com/et131xkernelmodule
    Unfortunatly I am unable to do it.
    I have also tried to install the module compiled by a member at the following address:
    http://www.archlinux.org/~tom/packages/
    The module seems to be installed properly. A new folder is created in /lib/modules/
    However, I am unable to load it.
    # modprobe et131x.ko
    FATAL: Module et131x.ko not found
    #insmod et131x.ko
    insmod: error inserting 'et131x.ko': -1 Invalid module format
    Am I doing something wrong?
    NB:
    The module has been compiled for the 2.6.20 kernel and I am using 2.6.22 (i686)...

    Heh... I had competely forgotten that I had done that, so now I feel morally obliged to help you.
    I just tried a rebuild against 2.6.22 and it failed, but after a little digging around, I found a patch, and now it builds. I can't tell you if it works or not, as I don't have the hardware.
    Get the new package in the same place as before, and let me know how it goes.
    It's worth noting that this code is 6 months old at this stage, and the project doesn't seem to be very active. There's one 4-mail thread about it on lkml.org, with no indication that this will ever be merged to mainline.

  • Unable to install twain driver for Epson scanner -- Leopard

    I finally got the printer driver working for my Epson CX6600.
    Downloaded the correct driver from the Epson website and all is fine.
    But now my scanner won't work.
    The CX6600 is an all-in-one.
    The Twain Scanner Driver was paired up in the same download.
    However, after downloading the installer file I was unable to install it.
    The cursor just spins and spins -- and I then get a repeated warning window asking if I want to open this software downloaded from the Internet.
    I have to do a Force Quit to get out of the installer app.
    Ideas?
    Thanks,
    Danty

    where you able to resolve this problem? I also have this problem. Can scan manually.

  • Unable to install new driver for Quadro 4000

    Hello
    downloaded the new version 304.00.05f05 for quadro 4000. unable to install the new driver for NVIDIA Quadro 4000.
    By clicking on the DMG I get a message "high-os-title high-os-message superimposed on the installer window

    Please help

    Try downloading the update again. Perhaps the one you have got corrupted during the download process.
    You can install updates in the Safe Mode and it should eliminate the possibility of other software interfering with the update process.
    Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem.
