    Default LBZ Full flash update error...

    Alright, since I noticed GMPX just posted info on LBZ/LMM full flashing!!!! I just thought I would update the software and give er a shot.

    Updated my V7.5 software fine, then tried my 8.1...couple things...

    Everything went fine with V7.5 update so I went to do 8.1 like it said. When I go to update it, a screen pulls up saying...1st picture

    Then I open up EFI Tune tool and get this error...the second one

    What you think guys/gals?

    Ah, sorry, my fault, I forgot to send Paul the missing file Z88.ext to include in this release, we'll get that sorted ASAP.

    Cheers,

    When the updates are being applied the original install must be 100% intact. If any of the original installation files have been renamed, modified or deleted, then you may see that message.

    Try Downloading the full/base V8.1.2 version (build 42) from the web site and install that, then do the "check for updates" again to bring it up to build 44.

    Once the update has completed successfully you should have a new firmware file here:
    C:\Program Files\EFILive\V8\Firmware\FSProgV2_06_06.efw

    You should upgrade your FlashScan V2 (if you have one) using that latest firmware file with EFILive Explorer.

    Paul, I meant to say I was running V8.1.2 (I was just typing in a hurry ) Anyways, I have the latest firmware and build so should I just uninstall the v8 and then reinstall 42 and update? I figured that reinstalling it might do the trick


    Thanks for the VERY Quick response guys, this truly is good customer support!

    That message is being displayed by Vista's UAC (User account control), not by EFILive or by the QSetup installation program. It appears that Vista will display that message when it "thinks" the software installation did not complete successfully.

    Information about what criteria Vista's UAC uses to determine if the software was installed correctly, is hard to find. What I think may be happening is that because on a couple of these updates, I did not increase the version number of one or more executable files, that Vista thinks that they were not updated during the install.

    We have UAC turned off here at EFILive and so we would never see that message. We need to test installations with the UAC turned on in future so that we can warn customers (ahead of time) that the message may appear.

    The best option is to select the "This programmed installed correctly" option and run the software and make sure the new features are available.

    In this specific case, make sure the following versions are installed:
    EFILive_Tune.exe V7.5.5 (Build 77) (via Help->About)
    EFILive_Scan.exe V7.5.5 (Build 77) (via Help->About)
    EFILive_Explorer V8.1.2 (Build 44) (via the [About] button on the [Firmware] tab page).

    For more information do a Google search for "this program might not have installed correctly" (include the quotes).

    Regards
    Paul

    The funny thing is, I turned off the UAC in Vista because it is annoying, now, every time I boot I get a message to say the UAC is off!! Didn't achieve much really

    I disabled all the "Security Alerts"... UAC was the first thing I killed in Vista.
