Access is Denied

getting realy angry now, been trying to install a usb freeview TV software,
but at the end of installation an error message pops up saying "mpg2splt.ax
ACCESS IS DENIED" ive tried everything from changing users, to changing
permissions for users but i cant crack it
any ideas guys?>

Have you checked with the manufacturer of the software to see if they have a
Vista-compatible version available?

You could try running the software installer with Administrative
privileges - right-click on the installer executable and select 'Run as
Administrator'. Does the software install correctly then? If it installs
ok, but gives 'Access is Denied' messages when running the program, then try
running as Administrator - right-click on the program shortcut, select 'Run
as Administrator'. If it still doesn't work, then you will have to wait for
the manufacturer to produce a Vista-compatible version.

try installing it from safe mode as administarator..
check if your able to install other software with no errors. and also check
if its compatiable with vista by contacting ur hardware vendor.. because
unless the hardware vendor come up with a suiteable driver compatiable with
vista it might not work.
