NTI CD MAKER 7

I have an Acer E380 with Vista Home Premium installed which included NTI CD
Maker 7
which has worked until today when I received the error message "%1 was not
installed properly, or it was altered"
When I go to Control Panel/Programs and Features and try to repair NTI CD
Maker 7 it wants to know where
the .msi file is. I do not know where this file is unless it is on a hidden
partition that Acer uses to store Vista
recovery info on. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Acer computers come with a program called eRecovery, that will allow you to
burn recovery DVDs for both your OS and manufacturer's software. NTI CD
Maker installation files can be found on the recovery disks.

Since neither eRecovery nor the NTI burning suite is part of Windows, you
should look for further advice on Acer's support and download sites.

It wouldn't hurt. Just keep in mind that the burning suite that comes with
Acers is a stripped down OEM version (called "Gold"). For instance, you can
not use NTI's trial version to fix a broken OEM installation.

I had the same problem and had to go to the NTI site
'NewTech Infosystems (NTI) - CD & DVD Burning & Backup software
(http://www.ntius.com/en/us/download/...er_update.asp#)
Click on the Version 6x Tab and Scrolling down the page I found the OE
software link CD/DVD Maker and click on Acer and it takes you to thei
download for Ver 7 Gold for Acer computers. After downloading an
running the software, it was good as new again

I had the exact same problem. I FIXED IT THOU!!!
(Please note...I did not wipe off the version that would not work on the laptop. If you do that, it might not install the update).
The version I have on my Acer laptop is obviously not the full version but a one very basic one that is installed on many many computers (oem) so you cannot upgrade to it etc to fix it. I did not have backup discs and i tried various things that have been mentioned here. I finally eneded up here: nticorp.com/en/us/support
oem_vendor.asp?page_lan=&n=OEM_Acer
NTI - DVD Burning, CD Burning, Blu-ray Burning Software, Backup Recovery Software for Acer - Official Site[/url]
Note: The url address above has not been copied exact from the web browser because this stupid forum thing would not let me submit more that 25 characters at a time. So you will have to play around with the above information in google or web browser address bar yourself. (good luck)
But it's pointing to the right place...
where I selected the NTI cd dvd 7 Gold download, which is the one on my laptop and BINGO! It downloaded it to my desktop, I ran it and it took me through the installation process. Now I can use it.
Obviously, what's happened, is a file has been damaged and this has just put everything right. Please note...I did not wipe off the version that would not work on the laptop. If you do that, it might not install the update.
