Maybe the message says: "Setup cannot copy the file Atapi.sys". DAEMON Tools or Alcohol 120% are known to cause this behavior. See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884675/en-us "You receive a "Copy Error: Setup cannot copy the file Atapi.sys" error message when you try to install Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005, or Windows Server 2003 Service Pack". Also applies to Windows XP Service Pack 3.

Saturday, July 26, 2008 5:28 AM Reply | Quote 0 Sign in to vote DigitalF, do you have any 3rd-party applications of a similar nature to Daemon Tools or Alcohol installed, that would hold atapi.sys open and in use? It is something in your PC that is doing this, and only you can determine what it is. Ifwe highly recommend that you visit our Guide for New Members.

I have uninstalled (and deleted the folders) all virtual drivers, and even the cd/dvd drive. I have scanned my computer for viruses, malware, and spyware and removed all threats as well. I have also tried moving "atapi" to a different folder and renaming it but when I try a message comes atapi.sys error during up that says it is in use. I have no more ideas and the internet solutions are not working or don't apply. I am very frusterated! Please help! eshaa16, May 18, 2010 #1 jackuars Joined: Apr 20, 2009 Messages: 172 Solve 1: This may occur if u have these programs installed Alcohol 120% ,Daemon tools http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884675/en-us Check this link to continue with ur installation.. Solve 2: If you are unable to determine which 3rd-party software is causing this issue, then here is a method of installing SP3 that avoids most 3rd-party conflicts: - download the stand-alone SP3 installer from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...A8-5E76-401F-BE08-1E1555D4F3D4&displaylang=en and save it at a known place on hard disk. - use "msconfig" to select "Diagnostic Startup", and re-boot Windows. - dismiss "msconfig" when it pops up after restart. - now launch the SP3 updater from the known place where you saved it. - when the SP3 update has all finished (involves at least one restart), use "msconfig" to select "Normal Startup", and re-boot Windows.
