Solve : Vista Transformation Package 9.0?

Answer»

Microsoft Windows XP
Professional
Version 2002
Service Pack 3

Two User Accounts

AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1500+
1.29 GHz, 1.00GB of RAM

AVG Anti-Virus Free

------------------------------

So I run the program called Vista Transformation Pack from BelchFire and I end up getting a message saying

'Windows cannot access the specified device, file or path. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access this ITEM.'

Next AVG pops up and says scrnrdr.exe is a trojan horse.

Then I get a message saying
'Could not execute the external program C:\\WINDOWS\System32\scrnrdr.exe'

This program is supposed to make my PC look like Vista. So how can I solve this problem?

I've recently downloaded Zune theme from microsoft, used TuneUp Utilities; fixed registry and improved system performances, RocketDock.exe, installed two new browsers; Opera and Safari and used CCleaner's registry fix and cleaner.


How can I fix this problem so I can use the Vista Transformation Package? I've seen others use it successfully without any problems!QUOTE from: hadrice on July 14, 2010, 09:16:44 PM

As simple as disabling AVG or uninstalling it because its interfering with the installation.Transformation Packs are a nightmare in general...

Are you sure you want to risk hosing a perfectly good XP INSTALL just so it looks like Vista ? ?I tried it in a VM. it's sort of a cheap substitute. OTOH, because it was in a VM it couldn't use direct3d.

Oh and in an interesting twist the file that AVG said was infected is picked up as an infection by 13 other programs.
I don't understand why people bother with AV programs if they are simply going to disable them everytime it does it's job.Just use Virus Total Scanner to scan a file with multiple AV engines on one go.

But if you REALLY want a transformation pack, see this link here, make a restore POINT before you install and install in safe mode.
