Hello,
I'm having trouble installing SPTD version 1.58 on a 32-bit edition of Windows XP SP3. When I launch the SPTD installer (SPTDinst-v158-x86.exe), the text above the command buttons is:
"No SPTD version was detected.
Select action to be performed."
After clicking install, it creates the following keys under HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services (and under the applicable ControlSetXXX branches):
[sptd]

| Start := 0x00000000
| Tag := 0x00000007
| Type := 0x00000001
It creates the following key under HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Sy stem and applicable ControlSetXXX branches:
[sptd]
| EventMessageFile := "%SystemRoot%\System32\IoLogMsg.dll"
| TypesSupported := 0x00000007
It also adds "sptd" to the Sources multi-string value in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Sy stem. In addition to the registry changes, it extracts the 704KB file "sptd.sys" to C:\windows\system32\drivers. The installer then tells me that I need to reboot for changes to take effect.
After a restart, the r0 key(s) are gone. I have no secondary "sptdXXXX.sys" file in C:\windows\system32\drivers, and no LEGACY_SPTD key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\R oot. If I run the installer again, I'm greeted with:
"No SPTD version was detected.
Select action to be performed."
My System event log from a boot after installation shows the following:

My Security event log is empty.
Typing:
sc.exe start sptd
at a command prompt gives me:
"[SC] StartService FAILED 2001:

I'm assuming that this is because sptd.sys is a boot driver, but I thought I'd include it just in case it's relevant.
I turned on boot logging, but it didn't provide any useful information. "sptd.sys" wasn't mentioned in my boot log.

Is there anything I've listed above that may be causing my SPTD installation to silently fail? Is there any way for me to find out more about what's happening with "sptd.sys" at boot?
