Vista, Error 1327

I recently setup a number of Dell Optiplex GX745 workstations with Vista
Business Ed. for a client of mine.



As a normal part of the setup process, a drive M: was mapped to a MS
Server2003 (Standard Ed.) member server's shared folder.

The workstation's "My Docs" folder was then relocated to a folder within
this shared drive.

So far, everything works fine.



I then attempted to install the Intuit program Quickbooks. As part of the
install, NetFrameWork v1.1 needs to be installed.

Unfortunately, the install fails with an "Error 1327", Invalid Drive M:

Spent nearly 2 hours with Intuit on the phone. No help.

See Intuit's article online at:

http://support.quickbooks.intuit.com...OKSPRO2006_Fam

A search of Google and MS Knowledge Base showed a few suggestions.

I tried using Disk Manager and confirming the DVD drive letter.

I tried to disconnect the mapped drive, re-establishing the mapping while
unchecking the "reconnect at login" box, then rebooting.

These actions did NOT resolve the problem.



Can you help?

Had a quick look at google and found this, 'Error 1327 Invalid Drive'
(http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q110636) hope it helps.

I'm an DELL technician, I'm working on DELL tech support. And i don't think
that the support will help you in this way. If your computer is running that
ok and if you want them to solve the problem may be they will ask you to re
install your OS. there is no soltion in the microsoft data base and DELL
can't be better than microsoft on microsft product

This does work. Too bad it is so convoluted. I guess this is the price
one pays for security, at least as Microsoft sees it. To anyone who sees
this for the first time, save it in your favorites/bookmarks, I have so
far found 4 different programs which required this fix in order to
install.
