Unable to install fax component

I tried tonight to install the fax component, and ran into a refusal to
install completely due to being unable to find a file. The one I am hanging
up on is cinfo.dll. I've searched everywhere for it. I figured I must have
deleted some of the installation files from the sp2 upgrade, so I just
re-downloaded the entire file, and did a re-install. Still getting the same
message, even though I have touched nothing since the sp2 installation a few
minutes ago. Looks like this ahas been a problem for folks for some time now.
Hope Microsoft will address it soon! I'll stay tuned!

If you have applied any Service Packs, these files may have been moved to a
different folder (ServicePackFiles\i386), and you will need to direct the
routine to that folder.

I also can not install the component, "fax services" and have been
communicating with Microsoft about this problem. I have two laptops with XP
Professional and neither computer will install the services. Microsoft
refuses to recognize the problem. I was told by Microsoft that it is an OEM
software and it is their problem.
Microsoft should post a fix in the auto windows update so all can use the
services they paid for. I guess maybe we should move to a different
operating system so we may conduct our daily business.

I go to Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs - Add/Remove Windows

installation dialog ensues and ends with a dialog "You have successfully
completed the Windows Components Wizard". I click Finish, and when I check
the Printers and Faxes window no fax appears. Using the "Set up faxing"
choice there runs a setup routine, and sometimes a Fax item appears and
sometimes it doesn't, but refreshing the display (View - Refresh) always
results in no fax appearing. Going to Start - All Programs - Accessories
- Communications - Fax, the Fax folder is there but it is empty (no fax
console). No error messages appear during this entire process. I do have a
fax modem installed and have used it in the past (prior to installation of
SP2) without difficulty. Any clues as to how to troubleshoot this problem?

Post your details.
Microsoft can't fix this problem until they can reproduce it, and so far
no reproducible steps have been posted.

Had exactly the same problem, and I mean exactly, sometimes I had a "ghost"
fax, it appeared for about a second, then disappears. I fixed it by reading
this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884018/EN-US/

"This problem occurs because the security database is corrupted.". You can
fix by
http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_dtlView.jsp?soid=891986&ref=AI&ct=SB&IL=EN&Q S=can't+install+windows+components&OS=&CN=10&BV_Se @@@@&BV_EngineID= ccceaddeehkgjehcgfkceghdgngdgmm.0&ProductMenu_1=(A ll+Models)&ProductMenu_2=-------------------------------&ST=1&SortOrder=LT_WEIGHT&awhit=2

Although the microsoft artcle doesn't recommend it so it's obviously not a
great fix, it worked for me though. I do realise the article doesn't
descibe exactly the problem you have/I had but for some reason it works.
You might even find my post above somewhere, others have also had a ghost
fax.

Russ,
I believe I am having the same problem with my new IBM Thinkpad T43. I have
tried to install the fax service two ways: 1) From Printers and Faxes,
clicking on "set up faxing" in the printer tasks menu on left of window; 2)
From add remove windows components, by checking the box next to fax service.
Both resulted in the same error about not being able to copy files. Clicking
browse reveals the file, but apparently it cannot be copied. I searched for
alternate I386 folders, but none contained the necessary files.

If you need any additional info (e.g. logs) I am happy to help. I would very
much like to use the fax service.

Please note installations were attempted when all virus, spyware and
firewall programs were disabled.

Thanks,
Mike

Is this after installing SP2? If so, send me a valid email address so I can

I have the same problem as RICH904 in this thread. I tried to install fax
services through the Control Panel, Add Windows components, and get the
message the install cannot continue because it cannot find "cinfo.xml" and I
should insert the SP2 CD. I don't have the CD - installed through a
download, and from other postings I have found in other places, the SP2 CD
does not solve this problem. (I am waiting (4-6 weeks) for the CD to see if
it could help.) I directed the install to all the i386 folders, but no
success.

Thanks for any help.

Not for this one.
The fax developers have an unsupported workaround for the issue where the
Fax printer is not accessible after installing Fax after SP2 (where the
installation occurs without error messages).
The place to investigate this is in one of the desktop installation groups
as this is a Windows Installer issue. The Fax developers will not be able to
solve it.

I'm still waiting to hear as well. I know they just moved their
offices.
Maybe I should try to fax them... nah, it'd never work.

Valery,

It has not been solved yet. It's been referred to the
Microsoft
developers
(several weeks ago) but no resolution yet.

Mike, Russ,
has this problem been solved? I have the same trouble with my
Agere
modem
on
IBM ThinkPad and WinXP Pro. The "set up faxing" wizard seem
to
finish
successfully, but fax is not added to the list of printers. I
can
send
my
log
file if needed. Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Valery.

Here are additional details about the modem:
Agere model 1456VQH-T4 (INT1)
Driver version 8.31.0.0
I have copied the event viewer logs to files, and I'll
email
these
to
you.
There were no errors; the highest event level is a warning
indicating
when
the fax is being installed and then deleted that all
occurred
during
the
component installation routine.

The modem is on the HCL. It's a Lucent Win Modem

Agere
Systems. I've downloaded the current driver and have
also
used
older
drivers
but niether make a difference in this case. I'm not at
my
system
right now
but I'll check the event viewer and provide any
information
I
see
in
a later

I've emailed the entire log to you; it has one

attempt to
keep
it as simple as possible.

Via email, or posted here? It's rather large. If

Here is the first error line in the log:
"Failed to install the services section in
section
'Fax.CleanInstall',
rc
=
0x4b8"

I'm unable to find any reference to the code
above
to
determine what
the
entry is trying to say. I'm guessing that this
is
some
kind of
registry
problem, but as you can see the error message
is
less
than
specific
about
the
nature and location of the problem.

You should see where the process failed.
That would determine how the problem is
resolved.

Has there been a solution found to this issue, yet?

The reason is that I have just been trying to install Fax Services on
my (brand new) Compaq nx9105 notebook. The install process commences
and then, almost immediately, stops with a message that it cannot find
a particular file. If I select the browse button, the install program
instantly finds the file. Selecting the retry option then complains
about not finding the next file, ...... and so on, and so on,..... ad
infinitum.

This is clearly still a problem with the Windows Installer included in
the HP version of WinXP Professional SP2.

It does not help me with installing fax services, though. Does anyone
here know of a workaround?
