1607: unable to install Installshield scripting in runtime

Question

Hi,&nbsp;I have done this before and have not had a problem and I do not know what I am doing wrong.&nbsp;Right now I am using an old dell desktop running windows xp which is the same computer I used earlier ... Windows XP&nbsp;It is not wireless so I need to hook up the wireless adapter and the wireless router.It is the 54 Mbps Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter&nbsp; WG111v2.&nbsp;Hooking up the router is no problem but when I go thru the process for the adapter which is on the screen from the CD - the step by step directions -&nbsp;I double click on autorun.exe and then the Netgear Start Wizard comes up.The first thing to do is - Install Driver and Utility.I double click on that and I am supposed to click on - autorun.exe.I do and then I get the 1607 error message above.&nbsp;And that's it. I cannot go any further and I've been looking for answers but am having NO luck.&nbsp;So - HELP!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

You can try downloading and installing the software drivers from their support page for the&nbsp;WG111v2.

Thanks for the reply.&nbsp;As it turns out the router works and I am able to connect wirelessly without using the adapter.&nbsp;Thanks

That's great. &nbsp;Just curious. &nbsp;How were you able to connect wirelessly without using the adapter? &nbsp;You said your computer is not wireless.

I am actually a Mac person and I am using this old Dell Dimension Desktop that someone gave me termporarily.So it has been trial and error figureing out how to get this going.&nbsp;I had bought a Netgear router a while back off Craigslist&nbsp; because my current local ISP did not have wireless access, just a modem.&nbsp;I did this hook up once before and after searching I found that I needed to get the adapter and I found a Netgear adapter at the local Goodwill and hooked it up. So it's been super cheap to use it.&nbsp;Anyway, last time I hooked it up for a wireless connection I used the adapter, so I hooked it up again and kept getting that stupid popup above so I came here.&nbsp;This time I really am not sure what happened. After I plugged in the router and the adapter I had a wireless connection and the adapter did not blink the little blue light like it did before and i was connected. The router was lit up correctly.&nbsp;The Dell has this "Wireless Network Setup WIzard." I used it again and could not figure out why all of a sudden I was connected,even though the adapter was hooked up to the tower ( yeah, this is an old Dell but works fine :)&nbsp; ) and was not blinking.&nbsp;I just went back and opened up the WNSW and remember that&nbsp; there are 2 ways - with a USB flash drive or adding another network. I did not use the flash drive so I used the other, which is what I used last time.&nbsp;Either way, I really don't know what happened. The adaper is not blinking and I have a wireless connection.&nbsp;So, I dunno. Last time there was a Netgear windown that popped up with the info of other networks etc. And there was an icon in themenu on the bottom. I don't have any of that now. I am just connected.Spoiler (Highlight to read)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

The history was not necessary. Sorry about that. Just excess verbage.
