error while installing a program

michcio · 12-31-2007, 03:41 PM

hello!
I have been trying to install a program called "TI Connect 1.6" on my comp. but not succeed. When I try to install it an error appears where it's written that I have to log in on the adminstrators account to install it. But the thing is; I'm already on the adminstrators account

what's the problem...please help me

TI connect used for sending programs to Texas Instruments calculator? lol, I remember those days on the old TI-83 back in 7th grade

It may not be compatible with your OS. I dont usually recomend listening to 'windowsvista' but what Os do you have?

When using vista, you have to right click the installer then click run as administrator a lot of the time. So if you do have vista, give that a try.

Also with Vista you can run it in compatibility mode which will most likely work. I used to run it on Windows 95 so try anything from 95-ME and see if it works.
