EIC Install crashes everytime / Samples are missing

kaffein · Post by **kaffein** » Fri Nov 03, 2006 3:17 pm

This is a fresh install of 6.0 then an install of 6.0.1, then I installed or tried to install the EIC packs. When installing the instruments, after they install Ableton says a problem has occurred, must shutdown... (I get the regular windows crash errors as well)

This happened with every instrument, and all samples are missing, not even the folders we're created. If it of any information my libraries are installed on a separate drive.

I'm sorry if this is a repeat thread, I searched hard.

AMD XP3000+ Barton @ 2.1gHz
WinXP SP2

Well it seems the way the actual CD case tells you to install them doesn't work.

By using FILE > Install Live Pack, it does work.

The best way I've found to install packs is just by double clicking on them in Windows Explorer.

The entire thread is about it NOT working that way.

Oh is it? Well then by all means do not use the method which I've found to work well, if your thread is about not working that way.

Good luck

By the way, for future reference:

Each version of Live is completely independent of every other, i.e. there is no need to install 6.0 if you are then going to install 6.0.1.

Yeah I was wondering why there was 2 progs installed. Just uninstalled the old version.
