hey when i install a game or program there is allways this error comes up and closes the installation before it can start


any one got any ideas
 
It's because you installed Norton:

According to Microsoft technical support, these errors are linked to the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\VirtualDeviceDrivers

This key has an VDD binary value that points to:

C:\progra~1\symantec\S32Evnt1.dll

If the VDD binary value is removed, then the 16-bit subsystem returns to normal and is functional.

To solve this problem, you need to remove the VDD binary value first, and then update the Symevent files.

hey umm yeah it is happening again, but i have no norton installing and that url isn't working anymore, got any ideas how to get rid of it now?
 
You need to change the registry key as mentioned in my previous post. Then google for the latest symevent files/update.
