Cannot install access IBM on a new XP install

#1 Post by ddutta » Sat Nov 05, 2005 9:57 am

I wiped my XPhome that came with my T43 and put my XP pro, loaded the thinkpad installer and got everything else to work except the Access IBM. Before nuking my factory install, I had made copies of the IBM directories.

Access IBM install fails due to some missing .msi file. Where can I download this thingy?

I don't know if you are trying to get the blue Access IBM button to work, or are just trying to launch the program (which you can do from Start > All Programs > Access IBM > Access IBM).

If you are trying to get the button to work, check out the following thread.
http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=17096

If you need the Access IBM program, you can get that from the driver matrix page below. To find Access IBM online User's Guide, click on the T43 link near the top of the page, under "Download individual drivers". It is on the 3rd page (out of 4).
