Problems on Windows Millenium system

Postby IanM » Fri Feb 17, 2006 2:14 pm

My install is working perfectly on Win XP systems but is failing right after the first Installware validation progress bar screen with an "Unknown error" on a Win Millenium system

If I run the .msi, I get a Windows installer 2762 error:

Found something here but it is complete Windows Installer gibberish to me:

Help.

Hi Ian

Did you try on other Win 9X operating systems, including Win98?
Did you try on a clean machine ME system?
Did you use merge modules which may require a newer MSI version than 2.0, which is the latest supported version on Win 9X?
Did you use any merge modules at all?
Does a very simple setup, for instance one which installs one file and a shortcut to it, work on the ME system?

Answers to these questions will help us track the issue down as fast as we can.

Thanks for the prompt reply esp at a weekend!

It looks like it was just a mangled Millenium system. I had it running fine on a clean Millenium system.
