Warning 20225 Adobe 6.0 Setup was unable .... on Windows Vista

I'm trying to install Adobe Acrobat 6.0 on my Vista laptop but just before install finished this error message came up:  Warning 20225 Adobe Acroba 6.0 was unable to create a new item: Adobe PDF converter.  the Adobe PDF printer may be unavailable.   GetLastError: Parameter is incorrect.
How can I fix this so I can finish installation, or does 6.0 not work with Vista, or do I need a patch file to work with Vista, etc??
thx,
John

If you can get AA6 to work on VISTA at all, it will only probably work by printing to file with the Adobe PDF printer. Then open the file in Distiller to complete the process. You could probably change the port used by the Adobe PDF printer to just be a file and then be able to use PDF Maker also. There is a possibility you will not be able to get AA6 to work at all. The first product to be certified for VISTA is AA8.1. Thus, do not bother calling Adobe about AA6 problems. They will simply tell you to upgrade and not talk to you further.
A few folks have apparently gotten AA7 to work on VISTA. I am not sure how successful they have been with the functionality, but with AA6 I have my doubts.

    And on what system? Acrobat 7 is not compatible with Windows 7, if that's what you are using. You need to upgrade then.

  • Windows 7 Ultimate isn't installing on my iMac. Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition

    I have a 21.5" iMac (Late 2012) running OS X Mavericks. I'm trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate via Bootcamp but whenever i get to the setup part it goes wrong
    These are the steps I followed
    I selected all the options since I didn't have the drivers or an install disk
    it copied the Windows 7 iso image, downloaded the support software, and saved the support software to the flash drive (8GB)
    I selected a partition size - I gave windows roughly 100GB
    and I let it install
    Right now I'm at the part where it says " where do you want to install windows? I selected the bootcamp partition and formatted it. It now says
    "Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the Setup log files for more information"
    WHAT DO I DO?

    I had to read the apple instructions several times before they started to make sense.  I burned my iso onto a DVD and had the required USB for support software.  Are you trying to use the single USB method?
    This article has a lot of info on the single usb method

    Hello,
    Do you just want to delete the Ubuntu partition?  If so, you may be able to do by booting from the Microsoft Windows 7 installation disc, pressing Shift+F10 to get to a Command Prompt, and then using the DISKPART.EXE program to erase the hard disk drive.

  • Boot Camp - Setup was unable to create a new system partition....from Windows install

    Hi folks.  So I ran the boot camp wizard and made a USB install key for windows from that.  I boot to it and everything works until I get to the install.  I format the Boot Camp partition as indicated in the walkthrough and then I get "Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition.  See the Setup log files for more information." from the Windows installer.  What do I do?   Thanks.              

    just to add to the mix. . . i just got a new macbook retina.
    Originally used a USB flash drive. Hit the same barrier described here.
    Spent a few hours with drive unplugging / replugging silliness. No progress. Went back into OSX to attempt using an external DVD drive. There is no option for that in Bootcamp assistant now - must use USB.
    Grabbed a different USB stick and started again. This time I used the other USB port on the macbook (the one on the left). Everything worked fine this time!?
    You still have to go into "advanced options" and hit "format" when you get to the partition screen.
    Moral of the story: different stick, different port. Sounds random. If that doesn't work, try changing your socks and putting on a hat.
    Good luck!

  • Windows 7 Setup was unable to create a new system partition

    I had windows 7 ultimate installed on a raid striping configuration and one of the hard drives crashed.  I bought a new hard drive (WD Caviar Black 1TB) and when I went to reinstall windows 7, I got an error message saying Setup was unable to create
    a new system partition blah blah blah.  I did a lot of searching around for an answer, wondering if 1TB was too big of a hard drive to do a fresh install on, whether it was formated correctly, etc...
    What I eventually found to be the solution was to go into the BIOS and change a setting.  Somehow when my old hard drive crashed, the boot priority for hard drives automatically changed so that the first boot priority was one of my external hard drives.
     After I changed the boot priority so that the first priority was the hard drive I wanted to install windows 7 on, the installation went smoothly.  I think that's why other people had success after removing all external hard drives.  After a
    couple of reboots the boot priority most likely automatically updated to reflect which hard drives were actually connected.
    Anyway, I had a hard time finding this answer, it was frustrating beyond all belief, and I wanted to make it easily available in case it helps anybody else out in the future.

  • Bootcamp windows 7 setup was unable to create a new system partition

    I've been trying to load Win 7 sp1 64 for a week.  Tried 4 versions, all 64b, made a new USB drive each time, I always get stuck in the same place:
    "setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate existing system partition". I've tried everything, read MANY forums.
    I read format in set-up many times, but it matters not!  HELP!

    Restart your machine and do a pram reset (google)
    Open disk utility and repair permissions twice, also you should only have 1 partition
    Then try boot camp assistant again
    If this doesn't work, you'll need to either clean install OSX or have a terminal disk wizard from here try and help

  • "Setup was unable create a new system partition" error installing Win7

    Hi, I've just purchased aSanDisk Extreme 120Gb SSD (model SDSSDX-120G-G25), and when attempting to install Windows 7 I get a error "Setup was unable create a new system partition or locate an existing partition" when selecting the partition to install to. I've already tried various DISKPART commands to clean the drive, create the partition, format to NTFS and make it active, but to no avail. I've also made sure no other drives are connected except the DVD drive for my Windows disc. I'm using a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3 motherboard, plugged into one of the ICH9R Southbridge SATA ports, and I've switched AHCI mode on already. Anybody have any ideas before I send the drive back? Thanks

    In such a situation, you can clean the entire SSD using diskpart and this will ensure that the boot sector and system reserved partition is also cleaned. Try using the following method to clean the SSD and use the windows automatic partitioning to create partition for the installation of the operating system. 1. Insert the windows 7 DVD into the DVD drive.
    2.On the disk selection screen, press SHIFT+F10. A Command Prompt window opens.
    3.Type diskpart, and then press ENTER to open the diskpart tool.
    4.Type list disk, and then press ENTER. A list of available hard disks is displayed.
    5.Type sel disk number, and then press ENTER. number is the number of the hard disk that you want to clean. The hard disk is now selected.
    6.Type det disk, and then press ENTER. A list of partitions on the hard disk is displayed. Use this information to verify that the correct disk is selected.
    7.Make sure that the disk does not contain required data, type clean all, and then press ENTER to clean the disk.All the partitions and all the data on the disk is permanently removed.
    8.Type exit, and then press ENTER to close9. Continue istallation of Windows OS by using automatic partitioning scheme rather than creating partitions yourself. This worked for me in a similar situation. Hope will work for you as well. Best of Luck:-)

  • Setup was unable to use existing system partition because it does now contain the requiered free space.

    I try to install it, but i select my free (fresh formated) partition with 35GB free space and i see:
    Setup was unable to use existing system partition because it does now contain the required free space.
    if i select partition with partition that does not contain the required i see
    "Windows cannot be installed to Disk 0 Partition 1. (show details)"
    so what is it? what can i test?
    My Disk has 250GB, my partitions:
    C: 8MB - Boot (7MB Free) - FAT
    D: 37,5GB - WINXP (27,9GB Free space) - NTFS
    E: 35,3GB - New (35,2GB Free) - NTFS - i want to install on it
    F: 160GB - Data (6GB Free)  - ntfs

    Is this 8MB "Boot" partition (formatted as FAT???) something you created when you partitioned this disk for the Windows XP installation, or is this an 8MB OEM partition that you've somehow assigned drive letter C: to?
    I wouldn't be surprised at all that your error message is being generated because thsi "BOOT" partition, labelled as drive C:, is only 8MB in size, and you can be absolutely positive that an 8MB partition is going to generate this error: "Setup was unable to use existing system partition because it does not contain the required free space."
    The correct answer really depends on whether that drive C: is the boot (sic) (the proper terminology is to call it the system partition) partition for the Windows XP installation. If it is, then you're going to have some repair work to do on your Windows XP installation first, so that you can free up that 8MB partition.
    In any event, I'm fairly certain that the solution is going to require the removal of that 8MB partition, as you've suggested in your most recent post.

  • "Setup was unable to detect a usable Java 2 Runtime Environment"

    HI,
    I have installed JDK 1.3.1 on my W2K professional machine. It runs fine. During the installation of Java Web start, the setup dialog box shows "setup was unable to detect a usable Java 2 Runtime Environment" and ask me to install JRE 1.3.0_02. From control panel, I can see JRE 1.3.1 is installed. Does anyone know why this setup program can not detect my existing JRE 1.3.1 from Sun? Please advise.
    Thanks.

    BTW, same thing happened here.... 1.3.1 FCS installed on WinNT prior to installing JWS 1.0.1 and Web Start failed to detect the JRE. I just cancelled the 1.3.0_02 install & Web Start apps worked fine with the 1.3.1 installed...
    Somewhere in Web Start's config is a pointer/field to the JRE it uses...
    Good luck,

    It should install and it should run but, because of the age discrepancy, CS is not officially supported by Adobe on Vista.
