| 622379 | 2007-12-19 06:01:00 | (this is the first time I have done the chat room thing, so most interesting). DeSade - I had a slightly different root than you suggested (user, user, AppData, local, virtual store, program file) but under programmes there was no MYOB Cashbook to delete (only abode, microsoft works, mozilla etc). I will contact the MYOB helpdesk for a patch to see if this helps. Wratterus - I worked thru your suggestion but the virtual store setting was already set at 1024MB (which I didn't change). Thanks |

| 622380 | 2007-12-19 07:26:00 | Try disabling the User Access Control Run msconfig Go to the Tools tab and launch Disable UAC. (Could be 'Turn off User Access Control or similar - Haven't got a vista machine in front of me to check :D) Restart the Machine and try install again. Don't forget to run msconfig again and enable UAC! |

| 622381 | 2007-12-19 19:27:00 | The root is trial and error, its not easy to pin down. It is in there somewhere heh, but you do need the patch if your using the 2007 disc. |

| 622382 | 2007-12-20 03:27:00 | Got the latest version of MYOB Cashbook 7.1 directly from MYOB, disabled virus and microsoft firewall but couldn't load the programme (unpacks but then stops - the same as before). Looked thru the root directories that could be relevant but can't find any MYOB/Cashbook references. Am I back to a dodgy install shield on this new Vista machine? All the other programmes were loaded with no problems Thanks |

| 622383 | 2007-12-20 18:57:00 | Does anyone know the repair file to use for Vista for the install shield? I have looked at "tinyurl.com\accpy" but this is for XP. Has anyone tried using the "Registry Clean" or "Resitry Smart" type of online products? I asked a store in ChCh but they said they can cause more problems than they fix, therfore don't use. I ran the preporgramme of RegistrySamrt and there are 288 errors but some of these will be minor. Thanks |

| 622384 | 2007-12-20 19:52:00 | accpy is the only one I have found, I have been looking for a Vista version but no go (incidentally that URL is mine :) With it unpacking and stopping its possibly a CAB error, there have been a few of those even with the disabling. I would suggest you request a copy on CD and the version your after is 663/664 so:- 2007.3.663 or 2007.3.664 (there is no difference in these two) |

| 622385 | 2007-12-21 05:54:00 | The .zip version that was sent to me by email by MYOB Support was MYOB Cashbook 2007-1-363 (according to the subject line). I tried to find out if this is the exact version number using properties but I couldn't find it listed anyway, so I'll presume it is the version 2007-1-363. (It was generated in May 2007). This obviously isn't the version -663 or -664. Thanks |

| 622386 | 2007-12-21 20:58:00 | Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh my memory has kicked in. My old machine at work did the same thing. We use a heap of different versions of MYOB, and there 2 particular versions that did this - cashbook was one of them. I can't remember if my solution worked for cashbook or not, but it got the other one going. Boot into safe mode and try the install. | wotz (335) | ||
| 622387 | 2007-12-22 04:27:00 | Oh you lovely, lovely person. Obviously I have installed MYOB Cashbook and it is running! And so simple..... Aren't chat rooms great! Thank you |
