Error 1606 trying to install Autocad2002 and Microsoft Money 2003

Hi all, I am new to this bbs but I am here asking for help. So anyone who can help me I would be deeply grateful. I tried to install Autocad2002 and Microsoft Money 2003 and I encountered and

[error 1606 Could not access network location <Common Administrative Tools>.AllUsers\]

I have tried to resolve this but was unable to. Can anyone help me?

Simon,

Welcome to the board! I found this on the Microsoft site. Hopefully, it will help you out. If not, post back.

Hi Mike, I received the following error message. It is still Error 1606 execpt the path has been changed.

Error 1606. Could not access network location %ALLUSERSPROFILE%Start\Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools\

 

Simon,

I can't seem to find any more on this issue, at least anything that might help. References to WinXP, but not for 2000. When installing, did you close all other programs by using Ctrl-Alt-Delete?

Mike

 

Nope, when i was installing the softwarez, i did not press cntrl-alt-delete at all. This message just pops out when the installation was starting up. Nothing much else was done. Seems werid isn't it ??

I have managed to resolve this problem finally. Thank you so much for your help. The solution is to set in your registry setting

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools

instead of what was stated in the Microsoft Help file mentioned in the previous message.

Thank you for everything.

Simon,
