Trial version installation

[kjain9]

Hi,
I am new to EA and was trying to install it from the website.
But, It showed me an error 80070005, I do not know what it stands for!

Can anybody tell me what I could be doing wrong and how to fix the problem!  

Thanks

This could be related to a legacy database driver that EA uses by default. Newer versions of Windows, particularly those with no early Microsoft libraries (which may be installed by several third-party applications) might not have the older driver.

If you got this error after you first started EA, when you attempted to open a project, then try the following:

Open EA - without a project, so use the Start menu - and from the main menu choose Tools | Options. Near the upper right you'll see a check box for the Use Jet 4.0... option. This box will be unchecked by default. Check the box, then exit EA. On restarting EA you should be fine.

Please let us know if this works.
