Denied access!



Help please!

I have built an XPe image for our evaluation platform, and I am having difficulty installing applications onto the target device. I have successfully created the image, and deployed it to the target; including completing the FBA. I am using an external USB CD-ROM device which is detected properly, and I can read files from it. However, when I attempt to run the SETUP.EXE from the hardware vendor to install the graphics drivers, XPe returns an error to me stating:

The operating system has denied access to the specific file.

What do I need to do to allow XPe to proceded with installing the video drivers?

On a related note, this unit also includes a Touchkit touchscreen, which also ships with a vendor supplied driver disk. This drive will install (seemingly) OK from the CD, however when I run the utility to configure and calibrate the touchscreen, I recevie an error message:

The instruction at <insert hex address> referenced memory at <insert hex address>. The memory could not be "read".

Can anyone give me some direction on where I should look to resolve this error?

Last but not least...I was able to enable the RMB function in XPe by checking the "Show Context Menu" options in the User Interface Core component, however when I RMB click on the desktop and select Properties (to get to video options), the system never displays the Properties dialog box. Is there something else I need to enable to activate this function?

As I am sure you can tell, I am new to this, so I am sure that I am just missing something from my target designer that needs to be included.

Hardware: ETX-EDEN-400 with VIA C3 processor
Development: XP Professional SP2 running XP Embedded SP2 Devel Tools
Target hardware detected by booting XPE Disk 1 and running TAP (not TA)

Thanks!
Dave
