I encountered this error trying to install the sp43746.exe on a Hp Mini 110-1030 Ca netbook running Windows XP SP2.
Instead of allowing sp43746.exe to extract to C:\swsetup\SP43746\HDAQFE\xpsp2\us , take note of the extraction path. Once you receive the error message, close the installer. Navigate to the temporary folder extraction target, then navigate the subdirectories to find your appropriate operating system, for example:
C:\swsetup\SP43746\HDAQFE\xpsp1\us
C:\swsetup\SP43746\HDAQFE\win2ksp4\us
