    Runtime error while trying to instal FFXI

    I've been trying to install FFXI on my new laptop and I keep getting this lovely error: "1607 : Unable to Install InstallShield Scripting Runtime".

    I've tried every damn Windows Installer solution and nothing seems to work. The disc/installer work fine on all other PCs except this one. Any ideas?

    Heres some system specs:
    HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC
    Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (64-bit)
    Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo Processor T6400 (2.0GHz)
    4GB DDR2 System Memory
    Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD

    *edit*

    Well... I managed to install the entire game by doing the following:

    Start
    Run
    %temp%
    Enter

    Deleting everything in that folder.
    Reboot.

    Copy FFXI disk contents to a folder on desktop and run it from there.
    I had to do the above for every expansion pack... It was such a pain but it got the job done.
