I am attempting to install Warrior software onto a laptop, running a 32 bit Vista Ultimate OS.  The install goes OK, until the computer restarts to finish installation.  I get a fatal error that says it is "unable to open the warrior server" which is caused because the Warconv.exe attempts to run at the restart.  The same thing happens whenever I attempt to open any of the Warrior applications.  Any ideas?

Uninstall Warrior Software on your laptop. You may have used the older version of Warrior Software.
Go to our website, download the latest Warrior Software.
Click here (http://warriorsystem.com/downloads/downloads.htm) to access the download page!

The Warrior installation writes some information into the registry to start the Warrior server service.  Make sure you have administrator privileges before you install Warrior.

Uninstalled Warrior software.  Restarted and downloaded software package (CH 071220).  Reinstalled software and restarted with same result (unable to open warrior server).  I am the administrator on this computer.  Any other ideas?  Thanks for your help.

It still appears that you are missing the registry information needed to fully install Warrior.  Did you try turning off the User Account Control?  From Windows Control Panel -> System -> Security Center -> Other Security Settings -> User Account Control.

Removed user account control and reinstalled software.  Same result.  I can tell it didn't work, right away when the notebook is still loading the OS, as the WarCon.exe trys to execute and I get the "tin can" sound right away.  I didn't do this using the Administrator account.  I will give that a whirl, as well.

WarCon.exe is a Warrior conversion utility, it could not be run by itsself. It had to be run by the user by double-click on it. Are you 100% sure the laptop has Vista 32 bit installed? I have a client reported this error message"Unable to open Warrior Server.", It turned out he has Windows Vista 64 bit installed on his laptop. To check Windows Vista version: Click on the Start button -->Settings-->Control Panel-->System and Mentainance-->System. Under the System section it will display the System Type:

If you still could not setup Warrior to run on the laptop, please send it to us, we will take a look at it.

It is a 32 bit Vista OS.  I checked that a while back, when I last talked to David Wadsworth.  64 bit will not install onto a processor that is unable to handle it, anyway.  I have tried that, as well, on a different computer.  I can't send the notebook in, as I need it here, day to day.  Thanks for the offer, though.

Do you get any error message when installing Warrior?  Are you running any antivirus software?

Don't get any error messages during install.  I uninstalled One Care and re installed Warrior.  Same result.  I guess the OS on this machine just doesn't like Warrior software.

David, did you ever find a resolution to the fatal Warrior server error?  I am having this same problem and cannot get it resolved.  I am running XP Pro and have uninstalled and reinstalled Warrior serveral times under the administrator account.  I am using an older version (2007.5.1.1), which has installed with no problems on a similar laptop within the last year or so.
