Installing the V7.5 Software

[motoxdad]

I am having trouble updating my 7.5 & V8. After downloading the latest software, when I go to remove my current 7.5 & V8 I get an error code that says " script file not found" & "uninstall aborted", thanks john

You don't need to uninstall the existing EFILive software. You can install the new software over the old installation.
However, if the old software is half removed and half remaining that could cause problems with the installation of the new software.

Do you know what version of the V7.5 and/or V8 software was that was trying to be uninstalled?

Regards

when I tried to install the latest software, a box came up that said the previous version must be removed, my current software is 7.57 build 167 & V8.2.1 build 158, thank you for your help, john

John,

Ok, then do this:
- save the file My Documents\EFILive\V7.5\User Configuration\License.txt someplace,
- (do the same for any thing else you need to save: Bins, Logged Data, Maps, VDash),
- uninstall V7 and V8,
- install V7 build 211 and V8 build 203 ( from downloads page at www.efilive.com ),
- copy the saved License.txt file back to its location
- (copy anything else that you saved back to its correct location).

Then, check the firmware version in your V2...

if your V2 firmware is earlier than 2.07.xx then see this first: Upgrading-from-older-bootblock-firmware

if your V2 firmware is 2.07.xx then see this: Setting-up-a-FSV2-from-scratch

What Windows version are you installing EFILive on...?

[motoxdad]

windows 7 home premium 64

[joecar]

Are you logged in as admin (or otherwise have all admin privileges)...?

Are you installing to the stock install folder...?

You might have to delete the EFILive tree from the registry.

it shows me as the admin, how do i delete the Efilive tree?
