First, uninstall any ColdFussion installation from your server. Next, open the System Properties (i.e. right-click and choose Properties of the My Computer icon) of the server, open the Advanced tab, click the Performance Settings button, click the Data Execution Prevention tab, and change the setting to "Turn on DEP for essential windows programs and services only", click OK until you're back to the desktop and restart the operating system. This should be all you need to make it work, though the following tips are a good idea anyway... Make sure you have cleared everything you can out of the Windows Temp folder (e.g. "C:\WINDOWS\Temp") and your own temp folder (e.g. "C:\Documents and Settings\Your_Account_Name\Local Settins\Temp"). Run the installation at the console of the server, either physically or via Remote Desktop (i.e. "mstsc.exe /console"), from the original CD or from a folder on the server that does not have any spaces in its name (e.g. "C:\CFMX7CD") -- not from a folder with spaces in the name, and not from a UNC path. I hope this helps. -- Jeremy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:304130 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
