Under certain conditions, you may experience an error stating "Data is Invalid" when attempting to install drivers.
     
 
This issue is not SVEC specific. This error can also occur when configuring drivers for a variety of hardware devices such as SCSI cards, network cards, Modems, Sound Cards, or other peripherals.
 
This error appears to be due to a protection problem in the Windows registry and can occur with a variety of drivers. 

To fix this problem, go to Start, Run... and type REGEDT32.EXE to run the Registry Editor. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ENUM\PCI and you will see a number of keys of the form "VEN_xxxx", where xxxx are strings like : "1011&DEV_0009&SUBSYS_00011103&REV_04".

Under each of these folders will be another folder with a long numerical name. Open each folder and look for the "DeviceDesc" which matches the hardware you are trying to install (like Tamarack T9020A........).

HIGHLIGHT THE ENTRY "VEN_xxxx" for that device and select 'SECURITY'-'PERMISSIONS' FROM THE WINDOW TOP MENU and then tick "Allow" for "Full Control". Close REGEDT32 and then continue with the installation of your device.
