    Error: 0x80040708. Unable to create required engine components

    My problem: after having formatted my DELL, I reinstalled the Windows XP CD that came through without problem. Then I wanted to install the drivers missing, I went directly to the search page DELL Technical Support. I can download, to unzip but impossible to install, an error message tells me that it is impossible to start the installation!

    I do not understand a thing: I succeeded to install programs such as Office, Kaspersky, etc, but no way to install my drivers and certain games.

    A helping hand would not refuse ...

    For more details:

    My config:

    DELL Dimension 9200 Core2 Duo E6400 GHz
    Windows XP Media Center Edition 2002 (SP2)
    1GB RAM
    ATI Radeon X1300 Pro 256 Mb (down)
    Sound and Ethernet to the motherboard (down)

    What I did:

    Before formatting my PC, I took care to make a backup of my drivers through DoubleDriver. Then I reinstalled Windows XP. A part of the drivers. DoubleDriver I installed successfully, the backup process, but it lacks drivers
    I then tried to manually install the drivers from a CD backup (in the device manager): nothing to do I fought to get an internet connection to download drivers go missing on the support of DELL. Unable to install.
    Please, help!

    Error message for the ATI driver Software:

    "The installation wizard failed to launch installation engine: this interface is not supported"

    Error message for Desktop System Software:

    Try the official drivers? Then, you put them on a CD/USB drive and you are done. It may be helpful for the future use.

    The drivers are on the official page of technical support from Dell, I got page directly by entering the serial number is on my bill. I will not re-format a pc that has just been formatted, is it?

    Were no driver cd provided along with the PC? I try the drivers from the manufacturers sites to see, you can try without formatting.

    No, no driver CD was included with, you think that I started with this! I started by going to the site of ATI, I setup the DLL, but impossible to start the installation. And no, I can not test right away, it is in fact the PC of a friend.
