Eric writes "A customer of ours is unable to install MSDE SP3 on any of his 3 Dell Dimension E310 PCs. When enabling the verbose logging during setup all 3 computers come back with EXACTLY the same log (shown below).

The computers are running Win XP Media Center Edition. They all have File & Print Sharing services enabled. The Server and Workstation services are both started. I tried closing all programs (including their Panda Anti-Virus - I also stopped all the Panda services for good measure) before doing the install, checking the registry for previous versions of the software (none found), running the install directly from the CD and again from the hard drive. All to no avail. The C: drive where we are attempting to install the software has over 50 gigs free.

Please help if you can.
