SP2 installation

SP2 installation

SP2 installation

(OP)
So, is anyone else having trouble installing SP2? It keeps asking for the installation source CD, in spit of the fact that I have the CD in my drive?

RE: SP2 installation

(OP)
Specifically, it's looking for this file:

English_i386_SolidWorks.Msi

RE: SP2 installation

Did you install SW07 with the CDs or DVD?

Whichever you used, you must use the same when updating SPs.

cheers

RE: SP2 installation

(OP)
I used the DVD but I had to go and find English_i386_SolidWorks.Msi on the DVD. The installer wouldn't find it on its own.

RE: SP2 installation

Just to clarify ... you used the DVD for the original install and for the update? Your OP stated that you had a CD in the drive when trying to update.

cheers

RE: SP2 installation

(OP)
I used the DVD for the original install and tried both the DVD and CD for the update, with the same result.

RE: SP2 installation

I had no problem going from SP0 to SP1 to SP1.1 to SP2.

Do you have other computers at work/home to run comparison test on?

cheers
