"Creative Projects" hassle
Out of the blue, a program called Creative Projects, Microsoft Fusion 2.5
started to try installing on my computer, through a Windows Installer. After gathering data, it then produces a message box "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to the folder containing the installation package 'creativeprojects.msi' in the box below." Then below that is a BROWSE button, and a box for the path. The current path shown is: C:\hp\tmp\src\scancam\hpsw\setup\creativeprojects\ creativeprojects.msi It seems impossible to get rid of it, it's in a loop and just keeps trying to install. Rebooting does not help. Any ideas? |

Thanks,that looks like it should help solve this. What I can't understand is
what that program is that it's trying to install, and what started it. "Nepatsfan" wrote in message ...

"Creative Projects" hassle
Best guess I can give you is that it might be included in
software that came bundled with a Hewlett Packard printer, scanner or digital camera. If you've recently installed a piece of HP hardware you might want to look at that as the source of your problem. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the software. -- Nepatsfan "Happy" wrote in message ... Thanks,that looks like it should help solve this.

Thanks, I'll give that a try. I have an HP Printer (an older one on parallel
port, but I like it.) I installed it about 2 months ago, as I got a new computer. I'll have a look to see if there is anything else, or there was a change to that. Thanks again. I'll do the install / uninstall dance. "Nepatsfan" wrote in message ...
