Updating BIOS, Windows won't run the exe

I'm running Win7 Pro x64 and I want to update the BIOS on a a55m-p33 mobo. Live update just says 'download fail', so I've downloaded the file separately and put it on a pen drive as per the BIOS Update SOP. When I run the exe it says it isn't compatible with this version of Windows.
Anyone know why that would be?
Thanks.

>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<< and point to the uncompressed archive from MSI or create a dos bootstick (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=165175.0), put the .exe on it and start it in dos (also described in the BIOS Update SOP).

Captivate 7 does not run the exe on windows xp

We are using adobe captivate 7 installed (trail version ) in a windows 7 with SP1 computer . when we publish it and run exe in the windows XP (home ) under administrator we get following error even if the flash player is updated.
"" The installed version of Flash Player is not the latest. The latest Flash Player version has been installed successfully without affecting your existing Flash Player installation. Double-click the EXE again to run it.""
when we click OK it disappears and when we run the exe for the next time it runs . whereas if we run the same exe in the other user (not having admin permission ) also gets the same error and after clicking OK if we run exe again it shows the same error message again and again .
we have tested in win 7, win 8 , win server 2012 it works fine.
please suggest me why it comes and how to prevent it .

Installing on Windows is pretty simple, unless there is something that prevents the java environment from starting the console. Check the path environment variable and make sure there are no other jdk mixed. Check that the windows security doesn't prevent the oui console from starting, it happens that the windows security blocks java applications, and if you asked it to do it by clicking accept, then it won't start.

I am unable to run .exe files. I downloaded the install flashplayer update and it won't find the downloaded file!

To open Firefox a window comes up asking me what program to start the program with. I select Firefox and somehow it comes up. I am unable to run any of my other programs from the start menu or shortcuts.

<blockquote>
Reboot your computer.
When it's back up again run the installer with administrator permissions.
</blockquote>
Thank you christ1. That worked. I did try running it with administrator, but I hadn't rebooted and it didn't work. It did work after I rebooted. I don't know why that should have mattered, but there you go. Thank you again.

HT5654 Can't update itunes. tried deleting all itunes programs as instructed, but it just won't download the .exe file

I have tried everything I know to be able to download itunes back onto my computer since the itunes update failed.
I have deleted all the programmes, and checked that they are deleted
I have been struggling for weeks. And iTines seem to want to charge me £25 for support to help me sort it out- I'm not a happy customer!

Hello Selfdeterminant,
Have you tried the steps as mentioned in this Apple Support kb for the iTunes Error after iTunes 11.1.4 Update : http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5376
Did you remove all the iTunes and its Components in the Given Order.
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support ( If unable to remove you can ignore it )
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
If you are unable to download iTunes Setup file using the Default browser then have you tried downloading iTunes with a different Web Browser, if not then try that. ( Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome)
Save the iTunes Installer file in the Location where you can easily find it
After removing iTunes and its components Restart your Computer once and then Right click the iTunes Setup.exe file and run the Program as Administrator
If you are using the 64 Bit version of Windows on your computer then it is Good to change the Install Location from " C:\Program Files(x86)\iTunes " To " C:\Program Files\iTunes " while installing iTunes when it asks for the Location.

I can download firefox, but when I try to run it, windows 7 asks me to select a program type to run the *.exe file

I am running windows 7 with IE 10. I want to switch to Firefox as my browser. I am able to download the Firefox Setup 22 0 exe, but when I try to open or run it, windows prompts me to "choose the program you want to use to open this file". This happens with both the Firefox Setup Stub 22 0 exe (274kb) and the Firefox Setup 22 0 exec (21,239Kb). I can't find any program on Windows to run this exe. Same thing happens when I try to run the troubleshooter exe.

Windows 7 64 bit won't run any .exe starting with VM*

In my Windows 7 Professional 64 bit machine, executable whose name starting with "VM" is getting terminated after starting the process. For eg: vmd.exe, vmtest.exe etc will be forcefully terminated once it is started its execution. But if I rename
them to some other, it would execute without any issues. Looks very wired. Please help?

I suggest you use the
Process Monitor to capture the details. Run the same .exe with and without "vm" name. Then compare the processes. See if there's any clue.

WINDOWS 8, I finally am able to download iTunes, but it won't run the installer, anyone have suggestions?

Hi!
I've finally figured out how to download iTunes on this crazy stupid windows OS, but when I click on the setup in my downloads folder, it won't run. I've tried hitting "run as administrator" and troubleshooting and so far no resolution. Is anyone else having this problem? How can I fix it?? Please help, I am beyond frustrated.

Hi angelxkisses,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It looks like you’re running into an issue downloading the latest version of iTunes on your PC. Try adjusting the Pop-up Blocker settings in Internet Explorer as shown in the article below.

My processer won't run the new update ?

I have an iBook G4. After downloading the new version of Firefox it will not run so I have to continue with the older version. I continuously get messages telling me my version is out of date which is getting annoying.
Apple want me to buy a new computer at about £1000 which I can't afford.even if I could, the old programmes won't run on new processors so I would the have to buy them all again. not a good AD for apple? Greed rears it's ugly head!!!.
Thanks in anticipation. Regards Geoff Downend.

Logic express 8 won't run the update I downloaded

I have a registered working version of logic express 8. I downloaded the update and when I try to run it it says "An eligible Logic Express Version was not found in the Applications Folder. This Update requires Logic Express version 8.0"
I have a Macbook Pro running 10.6.8
Any suggestions?

For those interested, I reinstalled Logic Express and all the Jam Packs were there. I then installed update 8.01 and all of them were gone from the loop browser except the aforementioned Voices and World Music. I have reinstalled and updated three times. Same result each time. Obviously, something is wrong with the update. I'll sit out the update until 8.02 is released and maybe that will fix this problem.

My HP Pavilion 20 windows 8 desktop won't run the recovery disk

I bought this recovery disk awhile back and it never worked to recover the computer. You can here the disk spinning inside but nothing apears on the screen. I did a hard disk test and everything came back passing. I tried getting into my UEFI firmware settings to reset the BIOS but everytime i click the option it just gives me a blue screen with the erorr code 0xc000000f so I can't even get in their.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Then it would appear that the recovery partition is corrupt and the recovery disk you had, where ever you got it from was defective or had no bootable data.
You would have to order recovery disks from HP if available.
If you live in the USA/Canada, call this number... 1-800-334-5144.
If you do not live in the USA/Canada, call the HP business PC support number for the country you live in.

You may alternately download and create a Windows 8.1 ISO to install. It will not have the HP software though.

ICloud update for Windows won't install

I keep getting the Apple update dialog that states there is an update for the iCloud for Windows application. I've tried installing from there, downloading the update from Tools -> Download and even downloaded to whole setup file from iCloud.com. ALL of them fail with the error that there is a problem with the files and it immediately rolls back the changes.
This happens on my desktop with Windows 7 and my laptop with Windows 8.
Any suggestions?

When trying to install iCloud for Windows in Windows v8.1 64 bit I get the error:
"The installer encountered errors before iCloud Control panel could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To try these operations at a later time, please run the installer again"
I have disable the Anti Virus, removed other Apple apps, re booted the system and have tried the installer several time from several sources. THEY ALL FAIL.
Excerpt from Event Viewer;
Product: iCloud -- Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
