The installation cannot continue. Log on as an administrator or contact your system administrator. I've contacted SkillSoft Customer Support a few times and the staff there doesn't seem to understand how to deal this message.
The software should work with my older system. I just need to clear this hurdle. If anyone reading this post has encountered an issue like this, please reply with any recommendations.
I might expect that the security software you have antivirus, antispyware is blocking it. Disable any security programs and try again. Log in or Sign up to hide this advert. I believe Bill Castner covered why this is occurring in his reply at AumHa to you. Whiskeyman ,. Hi Wayback The below requires you to know how to boot to safe mode and also into Command prompt from the safe mode menu.
Likely you have a Windows installer issue or you have only the Windows Installer 1. Below are the steps to cleanup the existing Windows Installer which ever version you have and the update to Installer 2. First download windows installer 2. Then you must reboot to pure DOS from boot menu where Safe mode is displayed not from windows. Boot like you are going to safe mode and choose Command prompt! At the c: prompt type these commands exactly! Once in Safe Mode install the downloaded Windows Installer.
Once this is complete reboot to normal mode and try the SkillSoft install again. Thanks guys. Tried the install again making sure all security software was disabled and got the same result. Bill Castner's recommendation makes sense. Although my machine meets the requirements for running the SCM, the software 'installer' might want a version of Windows like XP with administrator privileges. I posted the issue here to get as much info as possible before taking any action.
Its possible that someone will read this who has experienced something very similar and might have specific info on how to handle it. I have a question re your instructions: when rebooting do I want to use the 'Command prompt only' option or the 'Safe mode command prompt only' option?
I'm guessing 'Command prompt only' but I want to be sure I've got it right Cheers, Dean. Command Prompt Only! From a bandwidth standpoint, you need to take a look at how much bandwidth you have to spare. When it comes to budget, you must determine what kind of remote administration solution you can afford. For the financially challenged, fear not—there are several free ways to remotely administer your network. This is what full remote administration is all about.
Unfortunately, implementing a full remote administration solution is expensive and consumes lots of bandwidth. There are lots of ways to implement a full remote administration solution.
All you really have to do is purchase a copy of pcAnywhere for each PC that you want to have administrative capabilities on. The setup process is simple. A wizard guides you through most of the options. Just configure the clients in such a way that they are set to always wait for a call from across the network not using a modem. The clients should also be set up so that the Administrator has permission to take control of them once a remote session has been established.
Of course, such a setup comes with inherent security risks. If security is a priority in your organization, you should carefully examine any possible remote access solution for security risks before you begin implementing it. For example, if the pcAnywhere solution sounds like something that you might be interested in, you might try loading it on two or three PCs and test how well it will hold up in your environment before you attempt to implement it across the entire organization.
Just remember that you get what you pay for. Windows 98 comes with a tool called NetMeeting that can be used to remotely control another PC on the network. You must also have a DNS server in place. When you set up NetMeeting on each PC, you can set it to load at startup and wait for a call.
The disadvantage to NetMeeting is that in most environments, the end user must perform some action to allow the remote control before you can begin the remote administration session. However, these methods consume a lot of bandwidth.
