SGE5.50 Client (+5.40) won't install on Dell Vostro 3300, Intel i5-430M XP-Pro

Please be aware that there is a current issue installing on this platform. The machine will fail to boot after installing the SGEclient.msi I've a ticket open for testing and will be testing other i5 based laptops to see if it's a generic problem with the newer chips/chipsets or XP issue in the next couple of days on a couple of Lenovo's just arriving here.

If it works on the Lenovo's, it'll be an issue with the Dell installation or bios 'tweaks' they do. I'll report as soon as I know!

  • Sophos have recognised this as a fault but have not yet published a date for a patch. I wouldn't hold your breath, It's been 3 months for me, the next version 5.50.1 is not due out until next month and there's no guarantee that'll have any necessary fixes in it.

    I'm evaluating a competing product at the moment to get around this bug. I'll may end up dumping half my license count and making the switch.
