Installing Sprint Smartview on Windows Vista --Dell laptop

I am able to download Sprint Smartview on my Dell Studio 15 laptop, with Windows Vista operating sytem, but when I try to actuall install it, it gives me the error message ''The wizard was interrupted before Sprint Smart View could be completely installed. Your system has not been modified to complete installation.''

I have tried multiple times to download the software again and or save it and remove it and resave it again and nothing works. I keep getting the same error message the software will just not install on my computer.

I even tried to remove McAfee in order to install the software and it will not work, can anyone please help me?

    Bperrydore,



    I did use the install as an administrator feature but it just would not install. Something kept stopping it in the process.



    In either case, THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES, this solution you suggested worked. WHOO HOO! I'm responding to you right now from my connection online. I hope that it will continue to work.



    Extremely satisfied customer,

    zlpalmer!

    Okay, my connection won't work anymore so I unloaded Blackberry Desktop Manager and reinstalled it and it is still not working with the #777 anymore.

    So I ordered a Sprint Broadband Access Card and it came with this stupid Smartview software which still will not load on my computer (Dell Studio 15 Laptop).

    The error message I get is:
    ''The wizard was interrupted before Sprint Smart View could be completely installed. Your system has not been modified to complete installation.''

    PLEASE ANYBODY, SOMEBODY, SUGGESTIONS? I can't use the internet at home when this crap keeps happening.

    Was Sprint smartview written to run under VISTA? Does it state that it is VISTA compatable?

Smartview is supposed to work with Vista. Did you right-click on the install file and run as administrator?

If you can not get it to work there is a work around.

First, download and install the BlackBerry Desktop Manager software. After installation, plug in your BlackBerry and start up the software for the first time. Open the Options -> Connection Settings… window and set the connection to USB. Plug in the BlackBerry, enter your password if applicable, and Vista will find the device and install a “standard modem”.
Open the Control Panel
Network and Internet
Connect to a network
Set up a connection or network
Set up a dial-up connection
Select Standard Modem
Dial-up phone number is #777
Connect.

Everything should work, some have reported faster speeds using this method over the Smartview program.

After downloading Win 7 on my dell studio 1535, my microphones stopped working. My webcam also tells me I need to download video chat. I've downloaded it but it won't upload.

Go to the Dell Download area ( http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&ServiceTag=&SystemID=STUDIO1535&os=WLH&osl=en&catid=&impid= ) and choose the drivers you need. This laptop is not officially supported under Windows 7, so you will have to try the drivers for the Vista version. These often work, but not always.

How can i get Network drivers for windows 2003 server on Dell studio 15 laptop

Hello
first you need to share it from the server example d:\data
then you need make a connection to your srever from your dell.
example
If the servername is "BOSS" then you should click start run and write \\boss on your dell computer.

If the server and dell is on the same net it gonna popup a window.
right click on the "DATA" catalogue and "map network drive" use a letter example Z: and mark the square reconnect when windows start or something like that. then you gonna find this on your "My computer"

I want to download remote controll and sound driver of dell studio 1435 for win xp. Dell.com only for vista.

Dell did not release any XP-driver signed for audio drivers for your Dell Studio 1435 because the sound card available on your system (regardless if its integrated or not) was manufactured and designed to work for Windows Vista
