"Powerline Utility Setup" won't install on Windows 7 64bit

[svanhooreweghe]

I've tried severel compatibility-modes, as an administrator, but during installation ( in Dutch" bezig met voorbereiden installatie", wich would be, translated: "preparing installation") the process stalls, nothing happens anymore.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I found the same problem trying to install the configuration utility on Windows 7. However I found it wasn't Windows 7 that was the problem it was my virus checker.

I am using Symantec Endpoint 12.0 which works rather with Windows 7 but when I try to run the configuration utility it can't find any devices.
My solution to this is quite simple. Open a DOS window and type at the command prompt:

C:\>

net stop smcservice

Run the configuration utility again and all should be right with the world. Just remember to restart the service when finished with the utility.

C:\>

net start smcservice
