TPkd error & pace error trying to install that too

[rost]

So I have XP sp2 and I just purchased PT 7.4. It installed fine but launching it gives the TPkd error. I looked up the error and it points me to http://www.paceap.com/dldrvr.html to download the XP driver. I do that and launching the setup.exe gives an other error. Error reading setup installation file.
Now I dont know what to do. Help digidesign please!!!!

the tpkd is for anti piracy reasons and p.t. wont launch w/o it. you might have to uninstall pro tools and try it again. be sure to restart your machine before and after you uninstall and reinstall p.t. make sure you downloaded the 32 bit version.

The real problem is pace's install will not even run. I will try to uninstall PT7.4 but it was a fresh install and I have nothing but mcaffee on XPsp2.

UNINSTALL MCAFEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

pro tools and anti virus do not get along in any way. at least shut off mcaffee AND your firewall while installing and when running pro tools!!!!!!!!!!

FWIW WebRoots Internet Security Suite is a PT killer also - At least with the FW interfaces.

I have tried uninstalling PT74 disabled Mcafee and reinstalled. Same error regarding TPkd. I have tried both versions of INterloks 32 and 64 bit apps. Both say "Error reading setup initialization file".
