Fatal Error !! Required NiPathsDir property METAUNINSTALLERDIR is undefined.

Put a new hard drive in a computer and am installing labview 8.5.1 again. I get the error - Fatal Error !! Required NiPathsDir property METAUNINSTALLERDIR is undefined. I found one page of instructions on fixing this and it did not help. Any help would be appreciated. thanks..

Operating Systems is Windows XP. This happens during the software install when the installer is initializing.

I have looked at this (it is printed and on my desk right now). The drive has not changed (D drive). The hard disk drive hasn't changed. We do have a network drive but I am trying to install it now with it not hooked up to the network. I have gone into the registry and it all looks like the computer sitting next to it that has labview installed on it.

Hi Hinze,

 

Are you using the LabVIEW 8.5.1 disks?  Sometimes copying the files from the disks directly to the hard drive of the machine can alleviate some issues.
