Trouble with install

[Rstewart]

Hey Guys, and Gals

I have finally made time to install 2019 at the two separate stations I work at.  We have to use a reseller supplied DVD for our installs (Admin will NOT let us D/L releases from Mastercam's share site).  Along with the help/admin rights of our IT guy we successfully installed and updated at station #1 with our NetHasp.

On to station #2 the Install just hangs up towards the end of the progress.  Ok, so I have our guy call up our dealer for help (our maintenance expires Tomorrow!)

They check about everything even look at all the log files during the attempted install.  Computer is a Dell w/ Windows 10enterprise 16G ram, Xeon, Nvidia video cards.  

This same machine is running MasterCam 2017 just fine.  Our reseller sent this up the ladder to CNC.   

You guys have any ideas?

did you see any error messages when it failed? If so what were the errors? 

I would make sure you are up to date with windows updates and try again, I have seen installation issues with not having the latest windows updates before.

Why would they want to make things harder on themselves?

maybe they like the power trip... seen it many times with IT

[Rstewart]

Power trip maybe.  But it's the Government.... 

 

This install worked perfectly on a near identical box in another building I work in.  Here, the Install just locks up before it get about 80% through.

Try running the mastercam system inspector utility and see if it gives any errors or anything. https://www.mastercam.com/en-us/Support-Downloads-Drivers-and-Applets it might help point you in the right direction to the problem but it does not give much details on the problem.

IT is going to try installing on another Box that's on the network here in just a bit.  This would at least single out my computer.

[Rstewart]

Same problem with the neighbors computer as well.  I'll just have to get another disk when I can looks like.

Do all the machines have the same A/V software.

Perhaps the antivirus software is blocking the install

I would strongly suspect antivirus or user permission issues to be the root cause, especially with an overeager IT department that is doing things like blanket restricting downloads.
