Win XP Won't install, won't copy system files

I'm putting together an A64 system w/ a WD 36gb raptor on sata1.
I've done all of the things posted on this board (changed bios settings, used the floppies to install the sata drivers during windows setup). Everything is fine up until the xp setup is copying the setup files from the cd. It stops at every other file and says that it can't copy that file. Sometimes I can press enter and it will copy it on the second try but it always stops partway through and won't copy any more files. I've tried 2 different windows xp pro cds, and i know my cd rom drive doesn't have problems reading the files. This has only happened when I swapped out my WD 250gb ata drive for the sata raptor.
My power supplies (came with chieftec case from newegg) settings are as follows (as I've heard this may be a problem):
+3.3V = 22.0a, +5v = 36.0a, +12 = 18a
I'd love any suggestions. I've already flashed the bios to 1.2 and it doesn't seem to help. Thanks.

I've taken one stick of ram out (it occured to me to do this just after i posted!), and it seems to be installing. I am still getting the "cannot copy file" errors, but if i have it retry a couple of times, it will usually go through. After that though, it still gives me "fatal errors" because it didn't copy all of the setup info onto the hd.
I was hesitant to put the system specs in my sig because i'm buidling this for someone else, but here they are:
A64 3200+
512 (1 stick) corsair twinx 3200LLPT DDR
WD 36gb raptor - connected to sata 1
plextor dd rom drive
floppy drive
and 2 case fans and the cpu heatsink/fan
Do you guys think that the power supply is the root of the problem as I've heard suggested? I thought this Chieftec rated at 450W would be enough. I will try and pick up a case with an Antec 380w PSU and try it out. I know that it's not a problem with the cd because i've used it to install on the same system, except it was on a WD 250gb ATA drive. Everything went fine on that installation. I've only been having this problem when trying to install on the raptor through sata.

Unable to install a zone: Copying 0 files to the zone.

Hi forum users,
I really hope someone has any idea what could be wrong here.
First of all, the server is patched with security and recommended patches, except for 118344-13 -> R-- SunOS 5.10_x86: Fault Manager Patch which I will install on the next maintenance day. It already has 4 zones running without problem.
However when I try to install a new zone now it always fails.

To me it seems obvious that the problem lies in the fact that it doesnt even copy a single file to the configured zone, therefor it can't install any packages and all the rest fails too. The big question of course is, why does it think it only needs to copy 0 files? Has anyone encountered such a problem before? I havent found anything yet on patches breaking zoneadm install but might have missed it.
Does it looks like a HD corruption?Might be since the Sun Management Console agent does seem to freeze on that server too once in a while.

All the packages are fine in the global zone, pkginfo -l tells me the packages are complete.
I did try the truss wrap but it gives me so much info it is hard for me to figure out if something is wrong. The only error i think that returns often and that is not resolved is:
ioctl(4, TCGETA, 0x080471E4) Err#25 ENOTTY
ioctl(4, TCGETA, 0x08047294) Err#22 EINVAL
The part where it seems to compile a list of files to copy however is very empty of truss entries:
Preparing to install zone <gal2en-survey>.
Creating list of files to copy from the global zone.
Copying <0> files to the zone.
Initializing zone product registry.
Determining zone package initialization order.
read(4, 0x0806DD3C, 5120) (sleeping...)
ERROR: package <SUNWcsu> is not complete: skipping installation of package
This issue is still unresolved for me. For now the only way to create a new zone on that server is to manually copy all files from another zone, editing the zonecfg entry and net config files for the zone, then i can boot and run it.

Won't download; Won't install; won't play.

I recently began having problem with the Flash Player after
doing a system reinstall. First off, when i go to the download page
for flash player 9, i click on the install and the screne reloads
but nothing happens. Also, when I go to one of my favorite sites,
Adultswim.com, the second page opens (which is a flash cartoon),
but when I go to the "videos" page, i'm prompted to download "the
latest version of Flash player," which takes me to the download
page where i can't download. I did the registry fix offered below
the "install" comand on the download page and it didn't work. I
reinstalled IE and unistalled all adobe products. Nothing seems to
be working.
On a scale of 1-10, I'm about a 7 when it comes to computers,
so any responses can take that into consideration.

<<What I don't understand is I can get flash player to
work fine from firefox but not in ie7.>>
That is becuase the two browsers use different technologies.
Flash Player for IE Windows is an activeX control and his highly
dependent on registry permissions and Windows subsystems (and hence
prone to suffering).
On all other browsers and platforms the Flash Player is a
plugin. Does the same thing, but less dependent on Windows. The
plugin seldom fails in the same way the ActiveX control does.
<<Has adobe even offered a statment regarding this
problem?>>
We have a number of technotes that attempt to resolve this.
Unfortunately there just is no simple fix that we we can find for
these odd permission issues. That said, we are constantly
discussing this with Flash Player Engineering and pushing for more
solutions. And I do mean constantly. But ultimately we've never
been able to determine what is changing the ACL permissions in the
registry that effects the Flash Player ActiveX control. So
ultimately sometimes the SubInACL tool is required.
Even Microsoft has similar permission problems (which is why
they created the SubInACL tool in the first place).
We are absolutely not ignoring this issue. If I could snap my
fingers and make it disapear for everyone, believe me I would.
Please be patient. And as always, you -do- have the option of using
non-IE browsers. We don't recomend that as a 'fix'. But it can make
your life easier.

Won't Install- Won't Uninstall

This is the error I get when trying to view quicktime...
"Quicktime Failed to Initialize. Error # 0.
Please make sure quicktime is properly installed on your computer."
When I click Ok the next box pops up and says...
"the plugin did not initialize properly"
Any ideas?
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and neither work.
When trying to uninstall I get "Quicktime Failed to Initialize. Error # -2095 Please make sure Quicktime is properly installed on this computer".
Then "Error 1402. Could not open Key: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\Quicktime.Quicktime\CLSID. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel."
Than after ok I get...
"Error -1603 Fatal error during installation. Consult Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm) or MSDN for more information."
Then the installer wizard kicks me out.
I need to do some video editing, and cannot use it until this is fixed. I'm kinda in a rut. How do I get help or fix this?

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

I can't upgrade my ipad 1 to ios 4.3. itunes prompts me to update but when i select, it won't install. it backs up files for hours

hi,
i am trying to update the ios from 4.2 to 4.3 for my ipad 1. when on itunes it pormpts me to do so but after selecting "update" my ipad synchs for hours without updating the ios. any thoughts?

You may have a corrupt backup. You can delete your backup and try again. Launch iTunes on your computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Find your iPad backup in the list, click on the backup name and then select delete backup. Then try to sync again.

Boot Camp / Win 7 (64-bit) install hangs at "windows loading files"

I was hoping I might get some help from the community. I've got the new MBP 15", 2.66/i7 and OS 10.6.3. I launch Boot Camp utility, assign a partition for Windows (76 GB in this case), insert the Win 7 disc (Home Premium 64-bit OEM I just bought) when prompted, and the laptop restarts.
It asks me to press any key to boot off the CD/DVD (screen color is blocked a bit oddly, but no worries). I press a key, screen goes black, and the message, "windows is loading files" appears. The white status bar below it progresses from the left all the way to the right, and then the whole process freezes before going to the next step.
I found another person's solution post on this here:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=703045
I haven't tried it yet, because I don't understand if I have too format the whole drive or just a partition. I don't understand his solution completely, so I was hopeful someone could tell me if it even sounds like it might work or if there is another known solution.
Thanks!

Thanks for including the details. Up front even better. Two different makes? AMD and Nvidia do not play together in Windows. 2 'extra' means 3 GPUs. Now there I would look at leaving just one.
What I meant to say was just leave the one drive where Windows will go, no other drives present - pull those sleds. And put Windows in bay #1.
Slowest burn speed, which is usually 2x but if 4x is the slowest setting, fine. Odd behavior and bad installs even when it does appear to.

ITunes won't copy music files to Media folder when songs are dragged

I am trying add songs from my external hard drive to my iTunes Library.
I have the following options checked:
"Keep iTunes Media folder organized."
"Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library."
In the past, I could just drag files from my hard drive into the iTunes song list and add them to the library. iTunes would successfully make a copy of the file to the iTunes Media folder so that I could disconnect the hard drive and still play the songs.
Suddenly, this no longer works. iTunes won't make a copy of the file anymore. It won't even make a copy of files located on my desktop.
I found a workaround -- copy the files from my hard drive to the desktop. Then I have to go to File > Add to Library in order for it to work.
It's an extra step, but it was VERY annoying to have to figure out.
So my question -- Is this an iTunes bug or some kind of deliberate attempt at making it hard to use files not purchased through iTunes?
I noticed this on one of the Apple support pages (my emphasis):
Copying music to and keeping the iTunes Media folder organized
You can select these options on the Advanced pane of iTunes preferences:
"Keep iTunes Media folder organized." Learn more about how iTunes 9 and later organizes your media.
"Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library." Select this option to store all your media files in the iTunes Media folder. Since it's all in one location, you can easily transfer or back up your media. When you purchase or import media into iTunes from a CD, it's automatically added to your iTunes Media folder. If you add media to iTunes another way (choosing "Add to library" from the File menu or by dragging an MP3 file into iTunes), it might not be added to your iTunes Media folder.
Well, why the heck not??

I have posted so many issues to APPLE on the staggering lack of basic functionality with itunes and each time they keep deleting it.
Automatically Addd feature does not work consistently if the library is on NAS or a drive not on the same bok as the Mac, iMac or PC.
iTuns will hang if you have the finder window open and the recently added playlist open
itunes will not add files automatically if more than three phases of adding folders to the automatically add to itune folder is refreshed
Once could even jump to the conclusion that the software testing and Quality Control in the iTunes development team had missed out whole chunks of tsting OR that the test designers wrote such basic test scripts which did not replicate real world useage.

9i won't install oo4o components

I'm trying to install 9i on a Win98 machine and it won't install the oo4o dll's. There's no oo4e folder in the oracle directory tree. I've installed three times now.
I need them for a VB database application. I keep getting Runtime Error 429 ActiveX component can't create object.
Can anyone explain what might be wrong?
Thaknks

I have 9i on multiple Win98 machines here. But on this one, it just won't install some of the client files. ODBC, oo4e, and ole are missing.
Is there something in the pc's configuration that could prevent these files from being loaded?

PSE 7 won't install on Win 7...msvcp71.dll missing?

I just upgraded (Custom install) my XP laptop to Win 7 64bit and tried reinstalling PSE
7, but get a "program can't start because MSVCP71.dll is missing" . When I first got the error I called Dell and was able to replace the missing file from my SYST32 folder. I'm still getting the error , and of course Adobe won't support 7 on 7. Trying not to spend money I don't have on upgrading to PSE8. Any ideas?
Rob

Bingo! When I got help from Dell, the rep had me paste it (MSVCP71.dll only, not the MSVCR71.dll file) into System32, not SysWOW64. I told him I was using a 64 bit version of Windows 7, but I think he automatically things 32 bit. Anyway, I copied the file from System32 ofer to WOW64 and it worked. Thanks so much, Ankush! Hopefully the program will work well in Windows 7 ;-)
