6. Next it is very important to run windows update*. There are several problems that can be avoided by having the latest software from windows update, because it installs the latest support files for the installer.

**UPDATE**
There has been an issue specific to Windows Vista that will give the error, "File path is not accessible," when trying to install. Following these steps should correct your issue.
- Uninstall BCFx using the shortcut on the Start button.
- Make sure that Ageia Physx is uninstalled using the control panel - Add/Remove Programs.
- Manually delete the Nerjyzed Entertainment folder under C:\Program Files
- Disable the User Account Control (UAC) as shown in the following link: the How-To Geek*
Note: Disabling UAC will lead to a less secure system, so be warned.
Open up Control Panel, and type in "UAC" into the search box. You'll see a link for "Turn User Account Control (UAC) on or off":
On the next screen you should uncheck the box for "Use User Account Control (UAC)", and then click on the OK button.
You'll need to reboot your computer before the changes take effect, but you should be all done with annoying prompts.
