I am trying to install a program (Adobe Acrobat Reader V. 4) from CD. When I
run Setup.exe, I get the following error message:
"Access to the specified device, path or file is denied."
When I tried to close that information window, I got this message:
"Windows could not run the installation program. You may be out of memory.
Close some files or programs, and then try again."
I was only using 282 meg out of 384 at the time. I ran EndItAll (utility
that kills all running programs and services that are not absolutely
necessary for Windows), then tried the install again. Same problem.
I then put in the Office 2000 installation disk and setup worked fine.
This is really weird. I know for a fact that the Adobe disk works because I
have installed it several times under Windows 2000.
I tried to install it on my laptop, with the same result.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
