Trying to load mdac and it will not install on win2k sp4. I have tried to
install in safe mode as well with no luck. Any ideas?
 
I have version 2.8 in the registry, version 2.5 in component checker. I
renamed the mismatched files , tried to reinstall and now i get UNKNOWN
version in component checker
 
"I have version 2.8 in the registry"

I don't know what this means but you're probably looking at a clean install
to fix a damaged MDAC

You got the penultimate MDAC from SP4. After that I think 2.8 is it if that wasn't already installed by the Service
Pack. Refusal to install MDAC means you are at or above the version you are trying to install.
 
I have been having problem installing Mdac 2.8 which I have to do to update
Quickbooks 2005. I have windows 2000 sp4 I ran the tool to determine the
version. It says 2.5 sp3. I receive the error " Inf Install failure
cerificat chain prcessed correctly, but terminated in a root crtificate which
is not trusted by the trust provider" Have logged in as domain admin and
computer admin try install under safe mode. Called Quickbooks they said it
was windows problem. Thanks in advance for any help
