    I'm attempting to help my sister solve a problem for why her new digital camera/camcorder won't install. The problem is I'm 50 miles away from her so I'm doing it over the phone.

    Here's what she tells me is happening:

    While installing a VuPoint Solutions camera via CD she gets a message reading regsvr32.exe unable to launch.

    The PC is a Compaq and OS is Vista

    Any thoughts on this? Missing file? Anything?

    Thanks!

    It's trying to register a (dll) file.
    Perhaps she has to be an Administrator?
    Sorry, don't know about Vista - with XP you can right click on the install file and 'Run as..' and select an Administrator.

    The programs on the CD may not be Vista compatible. How old is the camera?
