"System File Error" when installing 4.0

[kfurter]

Is anybody with this error using a laptop connected to a docking station (as the doc is usally somehow using SCSI)? I am, just wanted to verify that this is not what is causing the error.

Still Doesnt work

OS: Windows XP Pro Sp2
System: P4 2.4, i865g, 512mb
Others: .Net framework 1.1, nero6ultra, "daemon3.47", ms antispyware, zonealarm pro5.1, nortonAV2001

Havin' read the entire post, couldnt find one that work with me.

I have the same problem as others have
1. Run daemon400.exe
2. Prompt for uninstall of daemon3.47, allow it to uninstall
3. Prompt about sptd, click ok
4. Prompt about reboot, rebooted the system
5. daemon setup started after reboot
6. Again Prompt about sptd, click ok
7. System file error

In device manager
Dont have SCSI/RAID Controller
no PnP BIOS Extension


no System32\Drivers\dtscsi.sys file
no sata

cannot find d346prt.sys, d347bus.sys and d347prt.sys

found the same system error in event viewer as "Barberian"
but no matter how many times the setup is run, only can see the error once in the event viewer, that is, the first time install error, subsequent attempt dont seem to generate any system error

By the way i found sptd.sys was modified.

Have tried deleting all registry keys relating to d347, or d346 but there is one entry i cant delete
That is [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\PCI\d 347prt]
Update: have deleted after changign permissions

I have installed daemon tool 4 successfully on another machine with same software and OS environment. The system is an Athlon64 3200+, msi nforce4, 1gb ddr400, sata hdd

Could it be something to do with amd friendliness :-)

i was just suffering from "sytem file error". none of the fixes from above worked.

I finally got it installed by doing the following with v3.47 installed.

1. went into device manager>system devices and uninstalled PnP Bios extension.
2. selected upgrade from 3.47 in install options.
3. rebooted when prompted to do so and finished installation with no errors.

i had avg antivirus installed and running while installing dtools 4.0 so i dont think that this was a problem.

thats it.

Hope this helps someone!

same system file error with x64 4.0.3

[germx]

i got the same error, so i rebooted my computer in failsafe mode, and then it worked nice

Same problem when upgrading from 4.0 to 4.03 (x86),

I am domain user that have local administrator priveleges.

Windows XP ProP2.

Symantec AV Client running - can't disable because of domain policy.

I can confirm that disabling autoprotect on symantec antivirus 10.0.0.359 with scan engine 103.0.2.7 fixes the system file error thing.

I had the same problem when upgrading from 4.0 to 4.03 (x86).

And I can also confirm that disabling Auto-Protect on Symantec AntiVirus 10.0.0.359 with Scan engine 103.0.2.7 fixes the system file error.

I also had the problem when upgrading 4.0 to 4.03 (x86) and I can confirm that disabling Auto-Protect on Symantec AntiVirus fixes the file error.

[Elite Bushido]

ok well i cant even say how many times i tryed installing 4.0 and removing sptd.sys or w/e it is but for some damn reason i got 4.03 to work and this is how;

1.)Download and install Daemon Tools ver 3.46
2.)Dowload 4.03 and upgrade and restart
3.)for me it asked to restart again i beleive 1-2 more times so i did


and now it works....so... i hope this helps atleast one person =P

[Copytrooper]

You've to remove sptd.sys layer first - either download sptdinst.exe for your OS (in our download section) and run sptdinst remove, or rename sptd.sys - then try again after reboot.

yea make sure you go into Windows/System32/driver/ and then find the sptd.sys files and delete them then try to do what i said, and make sure its 4.03 and NOT 4.0 dont try to install 4.0 at all
