Shockwave Installer Error

I'm running Vista Ultimate x64. I've tried installing on both IE7 & FF. I keep
getting an error when trying to installing that says the side-by-side
configuration is incorrect and that the application cannot start. It also says
at the same time that it cannot load the DLL library at
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MACROMED\SHOCKWAVE 10\GI.DLL. This directory doesn't exist
when I look for it.

I have tried running it in compatibility mode and Run as Admin when installing
it.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!

I have the exact same problem. I'm running Vista Pro 64-bit as well. Tried the same things the first poster tried. Just wanted to say it's not just him.

I too am having the problem. Adobe says that this program is compatible with 64 bit if you run it in a 32 bit browser.

I tried this personally (cut/paste), got access denied. Just so that you know, you can copy/paste instead. :)

I did as suggested and now the player works. Problem is its XTREMELY SLOW. Can't play games because the animation plays at like 1 frame per second. Anyone else experience this??

I have WinXP Pro x64 and had the same problem. WinXP Pro x64 also has a
\sysWOW64 subdirectory and sure enough I found a \macromed subdirectory within
it. Based on PLECAG's post, I copied the \Macromed subdirectory from my
\sysWOW64 subdirectory to my \System32 subdirectory and was finally able to
install the shockwave player. The install was rough, and it appeared that I
had to install the google toolbar to be able to get the flash player (I'll now
have to uninstall the google toolbar). The install bar advanced to the end and
nothing more happened. After I manually refreshed the browser page, the
install routine finally completed and the shockwave piece played in the
installer window.

Maybe it's just me, but it seems that this is a flaw in Adobe's installation
process. If you're using a 32-bit browser, it should install and point to the
System32 subdirectory ... but if you're using the 64-bit browser, it should
install and point to the sysWOW64 subdirectory. Those of us who are
experiencing this problem are probably using the 32-bit browser.

We can't expect customers to rummage is system folders and move files around,
but some are using Vista 64 bit and more will use it soon.

Is this the end of the line for Shockwave? I for one don't see much point in
using it to put 3d or anything else on the web at the moment.

As I see it the problem is that we need to do things like this. Great - I can
see my own work , but I can see it on an old 32 bit machine already. Are
schools, higher and further ed institutions and home users meant to do this
sort of thing with every 64 bit machine they?ve bought?

I guess most new machines sold for the last few months are 64 bit Vista
Machines. Shockwave doesn't work on then unless their owners have read this
forum and fiddled with files in places most customers are frightened of. The
majority of machines that are going to be sold in the coming months will have
the same problem.

Think I?ll move to put my 3d on the web with WireFusion.

attempt to do anything that requires shockwave in firefox, the shockwave
loading bar just stays empty and nothing happens. Anybody now what the problem
is or can help me?

Unfortunately, that's not quite true ([i]voila![/i]): in fact, Vista's User
Account Control continues to run in limited capacity, even after you have
turned it "off". There are still things you can't access directly, even as an
administrator. I'm not sure whether this will help with Bill's particular
issue, but turning off UAC isn't quite the magic switch it's portrayed as here.

After going back and forth with Adobe Texch Support twice (on same Shockwave
install error - Vista), I got this really discouraging reply quoted below.
Having built a company on creating Shockwave (and now Flash as well) games
since the Beta of Shockkwave 1.0 in December of 1995 . . . this is really
disappointing.

Reply from Adobe was:

Please accept our apologies for the delay of our response. I understand
that you are having difficulty installing Shockwave player on your
Windows Vista machine. Unfortunately, the current Shockwave player
version is not supported Windows Vista platform. The
best thing to do right now is to let the engineers know about this by
filling out a feature reqest form at:
http://www.adobe.com/go/wish
I hope this helps.

when these multi million dollar companies dont think ahead.
I tried to install the player so I could add some content to my adult toy

You need to be logged in as an admin. Are you?

This is also necessary to run programs using Flash based on an IE kernel, like
Ergo (http://www.yourergo.com ) or the FineTune player (http://www.finetune.com

Adobe have now produced a new version (10.3) of the Shockwave player and it
does work on 64 bit Vista U machine. However, don't get too excited as, if you
do 3d, the lights are all wrong and bleach everything out sometimes even when
you turn them off!

Regarding supporting Vista in the current version. Give them some time. Tonnes
of top tier software and hardware too for that matter are incompatible or not
easily installed on Vista.

I also have over 18000 users for a Shockwave gaming site that I own and
haven't had a single complaint yet.

Problem solved. The reason why it would not install was because of my computer
clock time. I made a typo on the year and it would not authenticate with the

Make sure you set your time zone correctly and check the option to
automatically query time servers. This will help you avoid similar issues in
the future :)

I had a problem like this with some old Photoshop installation and Windows
Updates.

Man this sucks. I have the same problem. Vista is driving me crazy. I should have just stuck with XP. Better yet, gone with a Mac.

This didn't work for me on Firefox. Does anyone have a solution for this for those of us with this browser?

I'm simply mirroring what deesto's already asked. Apologies in advance if

The problem isn't Vista which has rules and requirements software developers
have to follow. The real obstacle is Adobe's lack of support for 64 bit
computing. They don't think they will earn enough in the short term to make it
worthwhile.

Here is the answear for your questions: go c:/windows/SysWOW64 there is a
folder Macromed, cut it and paste to c:/windows/system 32 THAT'S ALL:D now you
can install IE7;)Enjoyyyyyyyy[/q]

:disgust; It did not worked dude.. I am running Vista 64 and getting the same
problem. I tried this cut/paste but getting error in that even. Another trick
of FireFox did the job, but I wanted to solve it for IE coz, IE is very good in
Vista as I believe.

Thanks
