2.0.18 installation is stalled forever #354

Your model / PRS+ version?

It's recently bought 
PRS-950 running firmware 2.0.00.11300, it was installed with 1.0 firmware and I 
used my PC to update
it to the latest firmware.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. on a Windows XP machine, run setup.exe that comes with 2.0.18's zip file
2. it finds prs-950 mounted to E drive and the "installation progress" window 
shows "copying files, this might take a few minutes"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

expected to see installation completed; instead,  nothing happened.

Did you install PRSP earlier on another device?

Did you restart the reader at least twice?

I got it from eBay with 1.0 firmware installed, so I updated the firmware to 
2.0. Since the original owner never bothered to do anything with the firmware. 
I don't think PRSP has ever been installed.  I did restarted the 950 several 
times before and after the failed PRSP installations.

BTW, I restarted the device with the push of the reset button, I've never 
powered it off until now. Maybe resets are no good?

Please try reinstalling and restarting the normal way various times.
During shutdown/restart, the installation is performed.
The windows script mainly copies the files to the reader. The real installation 
is done during startup and the next reboot.

Repeated  it on another Win 7 PC with  the 2.1 Alpha version for 5 times and 
got the same thing. maybe there is something I should do before running 
setup.exe  or something I shouldn't have done like updating the firmware to 2.0 
from 1.0?   Also, I noticed that the READER is mounted as E: drive and SETTINGS 
as H drive.  Yet setup.exe always tried to run the setup on the E drive, 
shouldn't it be done on the H drive where SETTINGS is located?

finally, I removed the  pdf files I put into the internal memory and the 
installation went on without a hitch. Before the removal, the 950 only had 45MB 
left, I guess it's just not enough.
