Cannot install PT 8.01 on Window 7
When I was using Vista, PT worked fine but now I installed Window Vista 7 and I cannot install PT 8.01. In the middle of the installation, it gets error and stop. Any Idea? Thanks.

Re: Cannot install PT 8.01 on Window 7
Install a higher version like 8.0.3, 8.0.4 or 8.0.5 (you should be on 8.0.5)

Re: Cannot install PT 8.01 on Window 7
????
Yes Win7 needs v8.04 or higher. Do you have an Avid account with updates available? I can't remember what version the latest 'Full installer' was (I'm sure it was higher than 8.01), but you need to get it and then update to v8.05 from there.

Re: Cannot install PT 8.01 on Window 7
Thanks, Benoni and Zedhead. I tried to update to 8.05 but since I can't install 8.01 they don't allow me to update. I only have PT 8.01 installer cd which came when I bought Eleven Rack. Where can I purchase higher version?

Re: Cannot install PT 8.01 on Window 7
What hard drive are you installing Pro tools to?
It should be to your OS hard drive. Should be no problem installing 8.0.1, just don't install the drivers until you run the 8.0.5 update. Make sure you are installing to your OS drive (usually C:) Try right clicking the Install icon and choose Run As Administrator. Disable UAC before you install.

I still cannot install PT 8.01. I did Sandra report, do you think this will help you to figure out problem? Thanks.

Re: Cannot install PT 8.01 on Window 7
What version of Internet Explorer is installed on your computer? IE8 causes installation problems.

Re: Cannot install PT 8.01 on Window 7
Have you checked your Avid account to see if you have an 8.0.3 full installer in there that you can download?
Did you DISABLE UAC? Are you installing from a DVD? Did you wipe the disc down with a clean cloth? (dont scratch it) I've never seen the "Feature Transfer Error" Have you tried updating the drivers for your DVD drive from the manufactures website? Have you tried copying the whole DVD to an Image or just drag the contents of the DVD to the desktop and run from there. Another thing to try it before you install, right click the installer, go to Compatibility and choose Windows XP Sp2,3 or Vista Sp2. And be sure to run with Run As Administrator, dont just double click, Right click and choose Run as Admin. Before you try to install again, make sure everything Digidesign related is Uninstalled. You may even want to run a registry cleaner first like Ccleaner to clear the registry. I've installed LE8 on Windows 7 before and didn't have a problem, you just have to Run As Admin, and use a Compatibility Mode, I don't remember IE8 being a problem, but if it is, uninstall it, and install IE7, then after you get LE8.0.5 installed, reinstall IE8, preferably IE9 since there are security holes in IE8, IE7, IE6 and lower. I just remembered I made a video about this over 2 years ago, maybe this will help?

Re: Cannot install PT 8.01 on Window 7
I have PT HD 8.05 running on a Windows 7 64 bit "Professional" computer (Dell 690), but I never installed Service Pack 1. I posted a thread on DUC asking if SP1 was ever qualified with 8.05, and never got an answer, so I never added SP1 to that machine.
I did have an issue with 8.1 not installing, so never upgraded to it. Leap-frogging service packs and PT revisions/updates might be part of your problem. If you want to use SP1, I would update to PT 9 or 10. I have many other windows machines, and two of them have Win7 64 bit Professional with SP1 (and all current security updates). One has PT HD 10.01 and the other has PT HD 10.2. Will be updating those to 10.3.x once most everybody on the forum seems happy with it. Both of the SP1 machines have AMD Opteron processors and Tyan motherboards. PT 10 HD runs fine, but the AMD processors are an unsupported PT configuration.
