Can't load from CD-ROM

Every time I put in a new disk and try to load it, I get this

Quote:

\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Cache\is32v05328900\SETUP.LID file.

ERROR105

What does it mean and is there a patch or fix for it?

Google is your friend....

Problem
I have tried to install your software, but all I get is the error message: "Setup is unable to run an intermediate file needed to proceed with the installation." "Error 105." What should I do?
Answer
Solution: We think, that it is the problem of temporary files or directories of the setup program.

The standard "TEMP" environment variable is used as path to directory for ALL Installation temporary files (including DLLs/Programs).

InstallShield requires at least the 500K free disk space into the "TEMP"-pointed directory.

Check way:

check the existence of the "TEMP" environment variable;
check the existence of the "TEMP"-pointed directory;
anyhow run "setup.exe", wait for the "Setup Intialization Error" message (! do not press the "OK" button !) and look into the "TEMP"-pointed directory.
One non-empty subdirectory (with "_ISTMP0.DIR" name) a few files
("_ins0166._mp","_ins0366._mp"...) must be.

Please clean up the "TEMP" directory, and repeat the setup.

Please also close any applications that are running.

thanks, but that didn't work.

It worked fine then I installed "Registry Mechanic" to do a scan, didn't purchase it and got rid of it. It was then I noticed the problem. Could it be because of this? I tried system restore and norton goback to before I had installed it and that doesn't work.

I truly need to get this fixed as I have to install a program disk from work.

Is there more to the error? That looks like a partial report.

105 is a common installshield fallthrough for many problems. I'd clear out the cache directory it listed, make sure you have lots of free disk space (on your system drive and the program files drive, etc.

You mentioned "all CD's", but is it that simple? This problem should only be affecting installshield which isn't used for everything. Can you at least disable autoplay and Explore to a more specific installer that works?

Can you tell us what the installer installs? If it's in-house, nevermind, but it might help us track down specifics.

ah ha I went to properties and to autoplay, it was on music and I switched to mixed and now it works ok. so somhow I must have switched the settings and not known.

thanks guys, I truly appreciate the help. you all are the best and have saved my ass numerous times

I'm sure we'd be willing to split a 6-pack. :)
