WD Smart Ware - hmm too me it is not smart not to get to the goal - I cannont finish installation

Tonight I bought Passport  Essential.  But Now I give in to have this duppeditt installed.  Pitty.

The problem is:  When it remains 22 seconds of the configuration of Smart Drive I get the message:  WD File Management Shadow Engine (WDSC) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

OR I get the message: Cannot find "Program files`Wewtern Digital\WD Smart Ware\Front Parlor\WDSmart.exe

I have administrator privilegies.

Can somebody help me?

The Smartware is junk. The only smart person involved was the one that sold it to WD. I use Acronis True Image paid. Here is a free stripped dowm version http://support.wdc.com/product/downloaddetail.asp?swid=119&wdc_lang=en

Can you install SmartWare 1.4.1.1 even without the drive connected to the computer?
