I am trying to install the Spyder 3 Pro monitor calibration software. I have cleaned up the registry, dumped the recycle bin and the system seems to be "clean". I have tried it about 10 times but the installer gets hung up on one of the last lines of code which is: C:\Program File (x86)\Datacolor\Spyder3 Driver\i386\WdfCoInstaller01001.dll

I have contacted Datacolor Customer Support and they have been less than helpful and actually went so far as to say I was stupid and didn't know what I was doing, and that my computer was screwed up.

Can any of you guys help me, please?

Hey, I figured it out. The driver is not signed, for whatever reason I don't know. I'm running Windows 7 so I'm not sure if it will be the same for Vista, but the solution I figured out was to disable the driver signature enforcement. On bootup, press F8. One of the options will be to disable the signature enforcement. Install and you're good to go.
