Fails When Attempting To Install The Cisco VPN Client
Aug 4, 2008
Has anyone seen or heard of a fix for the VPN client in x64? We had an end user at our office purchase a Vista Home Premium x64 laptop. Pretty nice machine but it fails when attempting to install the Cisco VPN Client. From what I understand, the only fix is to run a VMWare XP in 32 bit mode and install it there. At least this is what we had to get it up and running. This was several months ago and I'm hoping that Cisco has released a patch or new release for this.
From what I am told, Cisco VPN client will not work with Vista and it is Microsoft's fault. Can you shed some light on this? Cisco is pointing the finger at MS, but it is their software that is causing the problem. Start Before Logon and Microsoft Certificate with Private Key Protect Fails Trying to connect the VPN client using Start Before Logon (SBL) and Microsoft Machine-based certificates fails. This is a Microsoft issue, not a VPN Client problem.

I have downloaded the cisco vpn client v 5.0.03.0390. I have a secondary internet connection at work which is wireless. When my laptop saw this connection it came up with a pop up that asked me if i wanted to connect, i did then it asked me if this was a work, home or public connection i labeled it as work. I have been testing on this work wireless connection and ran the cisco VPN client and it was able to connect.
Now i got home and the same wireless configuration pop up came on, i setup my home wireless and it again asked me if it was a work, home or public connection i choose home. Also, i have WEP running on my home network. My cisco VPN client keeps coming back with the following error: "Secure VPN connection terminated locally by the client. Reason 412: The remote peer is no longer responding"........
my work allows me to vpn in from home to remotely access my network files. unfortunately the cisco vpn software we have available to us does not install on 64 bit systems. and i've also heard does not even work on any version of vista.
I'm currently running Vista Home Premium x64 with SP1 and I am trying to install SP2 but I get this error: "the application binding data format is invalid"
I have uninstalled "Windows Live OneCare" and switched off the firewall and this has had no affect. I have also ran the "System Update Readiness Tool" and this has done nothing to help the situation either. Also tried the "The System File Checker tool". It got to 19% and then said "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation" Also when I try to install IE 8, I get this error code "800736b2". I had to do a system restore earlier today as something was causing Vista to lock up and I could only turn the PC off by holding the power button. This has resolved the issue of the lock ups. Don't know if this could have anything to do with it?
I am helping a friend install windows updates on her Sony VAIO laptop with Vista Home Premium SP1 installed. Laptop had not been updated since January 2009. All updates completed fine with the exception of KB973565. When installed via automatic windows updates I get the following error...........
I am trying to install Windows Media Player on a Windows Vista Business N machine. The Microsoft site tells me to download WMP 11 for XP but the install fails when run.
Vista Ultimate - Win SBS R2 Domain member Symantec Anti-virus Corporate edition ISA firewall client. I have 2 vista systems on my small home network. I tried the push update of SP1 and it failed and I tried the downloaded SP1 and it failed with the usual error codes. I wnet through KB947366 and actually got the long install but it failed in pass 3. My other system had no problems and is at SP2. Both vista systems have nearly the same applications and both are domain members.
i'm trying to install wow on my new xps 420, after getting to 100% it says install fail and it lists a mess load of files with could not be renamed (conflict manager::resolve conflicts) or could not be deleted(conflict manager uncreate objects) after them
I recently decided to take a bold leap and upgraded my Vista 32 bit to a 64 bit machine. Th efirst day everything worked beautifully. I downloaded the latest Nforce drivers, creative drivers, and ATI drivers, most of my hardware installed automatically. Now whenever i try to install a USB device such as a simple USB drive, it recognizes a new hardware has been plugged in it tries to install it automatically but it fails!!! The same thing happens when i try to attached a USB hub it tries to install it but fails. Pretty much and usb device i try to intall dose not work. i am using a Microsoft USB bluetooth keyboard that works great (except my keyboard shows up as unknown device), a USB printer that works great but any new USB device fails to install. i am running on a abit KN9 board, AMD 6400 X2, with 6 gigs of ram
For some reason, my computer refuses to install the: Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update(KB951847) x64. It fails every attempt and is listed as an "Important" update. The error found was: Code 643 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.
1. If I right click the desktop and choose Personalise, I get an errorbox with: but the 'Control Panel > Personalisation' page opens as normal. I also get the same problem with any other control Panel right clicks. The error pop-up can also happen at other times:
2. I cannot install new hardware. I have just tried to connect a HP officejet printer using the latest downloaded drivers, but the driver installation fails, giving an error window with: Then:The error number returned was 1603, so I went to HP's site and followed 'this workaround' docname=c01511439&tmp_track_link=ot_recdoc/c01453071/en_uk/c01511439/loc:2&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=uk), but that didn't work.............................
I just want to start off by saying I think it might be a good thing that I am having the issue with my pc that I am having just cuz I found this place. Ok! Now that I have the a$$kissing out of the way, here is my issue I am trying to update a game (RTW) from the 1.3 patch to the 1.5 patch. The patching for 1.3 went smooth. Now the issue I am having is the newest patch I am trying to install fails and said is can not locate rome.exe.. I have installed the game a few times and even in trying to sent the install to C:programfiles... rather than the one that has the (x85) in it it still uses both directory locations. I think the scripting for the patch program is looking for the .exe file in a predetermined location rather than searching or letting me point to it. Does anyone know of a way around this issue. This is not the first time I have come across this it is just the more resent. I would even be inclines to open the patch and rewrite the script to point to the correct location but I have no idea of how this would be done...
when windows update fails to install a KB, and it lists it as FAIL. why wont it reinstall or re-download ?? Or does vista reinstalls it when you restart the computer?
I posted a thread yesterday about problems with uninstalling programs. Which in the end I managed to do successfully. But I have a new problem. At the moment I am trying install a new version of Itunes which I downloaded from the website. However I have tried repeatedly to install but my computer continues to say that the administrator has set policies to prevent the installation. Also that I do not have sufficient access and to contact the system administrator. Is there a way I can get around this? If not who would be the system administrator that I would contact?
When I try to install updates with Windows Update, I get a message that it's failed and an error code 80070002 (unknown error). I have deleted files in the Windows downloads folders as suggested
From what I gather, sp2 fails to install due to GRUB being my boot manager. If anyone has found a work around...besides ditching Vista...share it. Unplugging a drive isn't an option...I have 5 OS's on 2 drives managed by GRUB. I believe GRUB was written to the MBR.
Windows6.0-KB917607-x86 does not install. No problems with administrator's pw. But after it runs comes back with the message "Some updates did not Install". No number or anything else. Second, Win Update keeps giving me error 80070002. I have tried all the suggestions I found in the net, but nothing works. The problem is still there. Thirdly, I tried to manually update IE7 to IE8 and also told me the same thing, it fails to update.
I cannot install any ATI driver on my Vista! after the installation exe begins, it goes into a detecting phase. Then it says "Fail to find any installable component"; and, the error msg is "Cannot detect any compatible ATI hardware" Workaround: Install the driver thru Vista's Device Manager. However, Catalyst control center doesn't install in this way.
I am trying to install TaxCut and the install fails just after the program starts Windows install. HR Block is no help. I want to reinstall windows installer and try again but I cant figure out how.
"Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor ran into an unexpected error. Please reinstall... and try again." (upon run attempt)
a. I hope it didn't hurt itself when it ran into....nevermind. b. Reinstall = same result. c. Re-download and reinstall = same result. d. It does appear in installed programs.
Microsoft will not support due to =OEM= Vista upgrading to retail Win 7 Upgrade. Gateway will not support due to "its a Microsoft software problem." Web search = no help. Machine is a laptop Gateway M-6881, 3GB, 2.2GHz core2duo. Do I just forget about Win 7?
SP1 went through the full install routine, but when it reaches the end of Stage 3, I get a message saying that SP1 failed to install and it then goes through a lengthy process to revert to the computer's previous state. There is no detailed error message telling me why it failed to install. I've tried both the automatic and manual download versions of SP1. I've also tried it with all of my virus and internet security turned off. I still get the same message. how I can get SP1 to install.
A friend's Vista SP1 PC is failing to install Windows Updates and also some other updates such as those for Itunes. The symptom is that the updates get downloaded but the installation phase never finishes (he's left it for 12 hours!). In the case of the Windows Updates, there are several updates that try to install themselves as the PC is shutdown or even restarted, but the message "Installing 1 of 6" never advances: the only recourse is to switch the PC off.
As I was looking at the PC, I noticed one thing which may have a bearing on this and may even be the cause: the System Restore applet (windowssystem32 strui.exe) fails to run. It displays an initial User Account Control window but the "Restore System Files and Settings - choose a restore point" window never appears. No error message is displayed and there are no entries in any of the Event Log logs.
It occurred to me that if System Restore is buggered, this might prevent any updates working if the first thing they try to do is to create a restore point before installation begins. I can't find any reference to System Restore failing to open its initial Window - I've looked on support.microsoft.com and done a general Google search for "Vista System Restore fails". All the info seems to describe possible problems if you get slightly further and select a restore point which then fails to install properly.
First, my system is a Vista Home Premium, 64 bit with 8 GB RAM, Intel E8400 @ 3 GHz. Second, I have Hughesnet broadband; HN7000S modem/router, and a netgear switch, and a Linksys WRT54G as an AP for a couple of notebook computers that are sometimes connected. I also have a dialup account with WT.NET for "backup" (HN is rather unreliable).
I've have four or five computers on line since I had these two accounts, but the present Vista computer is the only one that keeps trying to access the dailup account, even though the comnputer is on-line with Hughesnet. (all the other computers are running XP.... I'm really beginning to hate Vista.)
Everytime I boot up my system my security suite says that an application has changed that application is "WmiPrvSE.exe" and is located in "C:WindowsSysWOW64wbem". I also get another warning stating that an application is attempting to modify my system, which is potentially dangerous, that application is "WmiApSrv.exe" and is located in "C:WindowsSystem32wbem". Is this something that I need to be concerned about? I recently re-installed Vista so there really shouldn't be anything malicious on my system. If it is something I need to take car of how do I go about that?
I've recorded some clips on my camcorder, and it plays fine in Windows Movie Maker. However, when I drag the video clip into the "Video" section of the timeline, and then click the small "+" sign next to "Video", the program responds with "Windows Movie Maker has stopped working". I tried shortening the video, and the same problem occurs.
I have a windows vista laptop. It connects to a linksys wrt300n router, which in turn connects to my dsl modem (speedstream 5200). DSL and internet connectivity is all working fine. I was able to establish my cisco vpn connection and interact with the remote machines up until apr 2, first thing in the morning. Today, I can still establish the cisco vpn connection, its just that I cannot get to anything on the remote network including the default gateway for the remote network.
I downloaded the NCP and Kaspersky detected it as a trojan. installed it anyways, as I need it and there is no way to configure it for my NAT/PAT network that we use. I am using the Cisco VPN on my lappy but I need it for vista x64. Cisco is NOT supporting it and the only VPN I have been able to try is NCP. Searches all over the net yield 0 results or bad bandaids like running VMs and rerouting everything. Is there a way to successfully connect using Vista's Built-IN VPN or do i have to downgrade to x86 and loose 1gb of ram?
