not able to install device drivers

hi

I am trying to install LabVIEW 2012 on my machine(Using the CDs available f rom NI).. So far it has got installed correctly(Cd1 and Cd2). I want to now install device drivers.
 But when I am trying to install this device drivers (through CD 3)it is giving me msg "Specified folder does not contain the correct volume".
I have not installed any device drivers before on the machine.
Only the XNEt drivers I have installed seperately. But after uninstalling XNET drivers also , I am not able to install any device drivers.

What could be the reason for this?

Do  I need to uninstall complete LV and install it again?
I am installing it on windows 7 32 bit system

Does that error occur if you start the installer routine on the device driver DVD manually?

Can you check if the DVD has some flaws like scratches?

Hi

 

DVD is fine. Also , i have also tried copying the DVD contents onto local machine and then installing it again. But still I am facing the same error.

What could be the issue?

It could be connected to some issues with user rights and antivirus software. Is this a default Windows installation or a customized company version?

Well, i've never seen an issue like this.... do you have another system for a cross-reference check?

Also, when does the error dialog appear? Is it right after you started autorun? Is it after you selected all the drivers you want to include on the system?

The Dialog box appears when I am trying to install 3rd CD i.e Device Driver CD. Till 2nd CD installation(LabVIEW and various other modules) it gets installed correctly.

Can Windows Firewall cause this problem? As you  said .. i  will check once again whether it is default windows installation or not .If not may be I will not be able to diable firewall . I am suspecting this can cause a problem...

If you run the 3rd DVD separately, can you please check where the error occurs?

The usual process when launching autorun is that a dialog appears which lets you select the drivers you want to install. My question is if the error is before that dialog or when trying to install a specific driver from the DVD.
