'Access denied' message when update wireless drivers

Question

Hello everybody. Yesterday i try to update my intel PROset Wireless 2200BG of my dell latitude D510 with the good driver i downloaded on dell website. During the set up, it uninstall my previous driver and then install the new one, and then, a message telling me that the system was unable to finish the the set up of the wireless card, the cause was: 'access denied'. I'm administrator on my computer and i try a lot of solution: uninstall the card in 'witout failure mode', re install with this drivers, with the old driver, and nothing, always the same answer: 'access denied'. What can i do? Does anyone have an answer please?

Ksheeraja_tl, thank you for your quick answer. I try your solution step by step and sorry, it doesn't work...always the same error 'access denied'. But i agree with that point which talk about an application blocks my installation. I think about a complete re installation of my OS, but it's angry me, because i want to know how solving this problem. Someone else have an answer? Thank you
