Greetings,

This usually happens if your Windows Installer is not working properly.

To correct, do the following --
If you're using Windows 2000 or XP, click Start, then Run, and type the following:
%systemroot%\system32\dllcache\msiexec.exe /regserver
then click OK.

If you're using Windows 98 or ME, click Start, then Run, and type the following:
C:\Windows\System\msiexec.exe /regserver
then click OK.
(You will need to change the C:\ to whichever drive Windows is on).

After this, run the install again.
