RE: Firewire SP KB885222 will not install

[Guest Tom F]

I'm trying to install the same patch but am encountering the same response:

"set-up error, access denied, installation did not complete." I don't think

the patch was ever installed, because my firewire audio device, a Mackie

Satellite, still performs badly.

 

Any new ideas on how to run this patch successfully?
