Download the installer file again, it's corrupt. Save it to a different position than your previous one, or empty your temporary internet files before doing the download. |

Can you check something? Open Windows Explorer. Double click on your C: drive. Right-click on the Temp directory->Properties. Open the Security tab. In the window with the Group or User names, is there a mention of SYSTEM? You may also want to check that the Windows Installer service is not set to disabled. To do so, do Start->type services.msc in the search box and hit Enter. In the window that opens, scroll down to the Windows Installer entry. It should not have a status and the start-up type should be Manual. |
