Default can't install AVGFREE 8.0 on my XP PC.

Dear Sirs,

We keep getting the following msg whenever we try to install ver.8.0 of AVGFree

Local machine: installation failed
Installation:
Error: Action failed for file avgwdsvc.exe: starting service....
Service avg8wd failed to progress during startup at checpoint 2 (wait hint 10000 ms) in 90735 ms.


Any experience, ideas, suggestions?

We also have the problem of MSWord (2007) not working when AVGFree is installed (even partially).

Pls advise
Sachith

Welcome to PCHF! Do you have the correct install file for your operating system?

Did you get the installation by Download or CD?
