Can't get anything to work (Install issues)

I'm attempting to download and install and keep hitting dead ends, please help.
first off, the players...
camera - S110
computer - PC running win 10
2 Cards - one is 16gb, one is 32gb new from the package, both newly formatted in the camera.
downloaded ver. 103a

Here we go...downloaded and installed stic, dropped a picture, all ok, found the card drive but, can't identify any info from it. can't go any further...ok, I'll try the other manual install methods.
When I attempt those procedures, I get to the step to perform the firm update and all that happens is the camera immediately crashes (power down and must remove the battery to restart).
Thanks for your help

At this point, you'll see the Canon firmware version of your camera in one of the text boxes. If you're downloading manually, you should choose the version you see there.

It's possible that you did not run STICK with admin rights. See the author's notes here.

That usually means you're trying to use a CHDK binary that was built for a different Canon firmware version.
