This happens when the first installation of the software had not been successful .
What usually happens is that wrong system registry cannot be deleted
when uninstalling software, or overwritten when reinstalling, therefore
uninstalling and reinstalling the software does not fix the problem.
A bad setup happens often because you connect the USB data cable before
installing the software, The firewall or security software had not been
disabled, when you are asked if to allow a change to system during
setup and you deny, when your account does not have administrator
privileges, or when Windows has a problem.
What you can do is the following:
Unplug the USB cable.
Uninstall the software.
Do a system restore to a date before installing software for the first time.
Disable antivirus, firewall and security software.
Install again the software. Start software setup with USB cable unplugged.
On Vista, to start the setup, locate the installer file (eg. setup.exe
or install.exe) and instead of using double click to run the file,
click the right button of mouse and chose "Run as Administrator" from
the dropdown menu.
Ensure that you always allow changes when asked by the system.
Connect USB data cable with device on when asked.
If that does not work, then Windows has a problem, in that case you may need to reinstall windows.
