I suspect you are encountering UAP, click Start > All Programs > Accessories

Run > type in MSCONFIG > Tools (tab) > select Disable UAP > launch restart Windows.

Try installing again.
If the problem persist, please follow the instructions about enabling the Administrator account and logging by Jerry Ham - Windows Connected: http://windowsconnected.com/blogs/jerry/archive/2006/02/22/1028.aspx
From there try installing again. -- -- Andre Windows Connect | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

It is - it's just one hell of a pain in the arse trying to work out how to play it! Come on, I'm more of a web developer sorta person, not much time for games ;o)

I've noticed alot of people are disabling UAP to play games including Sims, I wonder if Microsoft is going to stop this somehow.. -- Deansweb2004|NT - Dean Wronowski Server2003 R2 (Grasshoppers) NNTP Hoster SourceCentral - http://www.deansweb2004.com
