We are aware of the problem with stripped
down versions of Windows XP. Newer versions of the WinPcap installer detect the
problem, return the error and install a slightly different version of the DLLs
that do not require NetMon (with the limitation of not being able to capture on
dialup adapters).
Have a nice day

[Winpcap-team] Help! Error installing the MSNetwork Monitor Driver [Resolution
to Winpcap installation error]
Error: "An error occurred while installing the Microsoft
Network Monitor Driver (NetMon) (0x800F0203). You will be able to use
WinPcap on standard network adapters, but not on Dialup connections
and VPNs. Please contact the WinPcap team."
I've been
struggling with this error for the past 2 hours and I finally found a
solution. Now I'm finally able to run GNS (Cisco emulator). I believe the
problem stems from using a heavily customized version (i.e. stripped) of
Windows XP SP2. First I tried uninstall Winpcap and installing the latest beta
release which didn't help. Then I tried installing Windows XP Support Tool and
running "c:\Program Files\Support Tools\netcap.exe", which failed to work. So
that led me down a different route which was to install Microsoft Network
Monitor 3.2 from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=f4db40af-1e08-4a21-a26b-ec2f4dc4190d&displaylang=en#filelist
After
installing Netmon 3.2, I ran the program and everything launched without a
problem. So I ran the Winpcap beta again. Note that I still got the error
during installation, but I was able to run Dynamips. This finally allowed me
to launch GNS and start using it. I know other people have run into this
problem and I hope this information will help avoid reinstallations of
Windows.
Thanks,
Matt
