I got a complete halt on a real test format at PowerDVD 6 installation. I've successfully installed with no error before and no recent changes to the PowerDVD installer, so I find it weird but the following error dialog appeard and halted all operations (dialog is translated norwegian>>english).

Power DVD
Could not copy Ikernel.exe to 'c:\Program Files\Commonfiles\InstallShield\Engin\6\Intel32'. Verify that you have rights to copy to this folder. (0x20)

OK

I manually had to click OK on this message, when system was ready I checked filepath and there is a IKernel.exe in the path (also 4 other .dll files and corecomp.ini)

Please help me figure this one out!

I had some similar problem when i try to install one after the other, some "InstallShield" progs!(with a batch file) If this is the case try to install something else between them!

Huh?

Yeh I actually added a program using InstallShield BEFORE powerDVD!

Should I put this AFTER powerDVD to fix it?

This is what I mean with "one after the other" :

Wrong

1.start /wait %systemdrive%\CyberLink\PDVD\Setup.exe /S (InstallShield prog)

2.start /wait %systemdrive%\CyberLink\PowerDVD6_Patch_2003e2\Setup.exe /S (InstallShield prog)

3.start /wait %CDROM%\Shareaza_2.2.1.0.exe /VERYSILENT /SP- (no InstallShield prog)

Right:

1.start /wait %systemdrive%\CyberLink\PDVD\Setup.exe /S (InstallShield prog)

2.start /wait %CDROM%\Shareaza_2.2.1.0.exe /VERYSILENT /SP- (no InstallShield prog)

3.start /wait %systemdrive%\CyberLink\PowerDVD6_Patch_2003e2\Setup.exe /S (InstallShield prog)

Some time you need to put 2 "no InstallShield prog" between two "InstallShield prog"

I had the same error and posted my solution to this topic

Oh I see. Hmm well that's weird cause it has worked before
And doing it like that will mess up my script.
