Having major trouble installing EZdrummer

[fire_down_below]

I have 3 computers at home. each one has a different operating system. Windows 7, Vista, and XP.  I have tried to install EZdrummer on all three computers, and when it gets to what appears to be the end of the install (after coping files), it pops up an error message saying…blah blah blah, make sure the files exists?!?! I have tried numerous installs, all with the same result. I even tried using the website DL, instead of the disk it came with. Same result….

Please Help! Thanks.

Well, it would help to know what ‘blah blah blah’ means from your error message.

Kinda the equivalence of me telling you, ‘just blah blah blah and it will work!’

During the last part of the install (coping files) an error message pops up and reads…..

Error 1308.Source file not found
D:/install/PC/Windows/winsxs/ulCRTx86/x86_microsoft
.VC90.CRT_1fc8b9a1e18e3b_9.0.30729.1_x-ww_6f
74963e.manifest.  Verify that the file exists and that
you can access it.

I will guess this error is from running the DVD or the download or both? If it’s from the download, make sure you’ve unzipped (extracted) the installer/files before running the installer.

Extracted files….made a different error now. Error 1309

Are you running the installer from your desktop or some place deeper in the directory tree? If you’re not running the installer from your desktop, try moving it there and running it.

as in….Save it to my desktop and run it from there?

Btw…I really appreciate your help. I have been working on installing this for over 6 hours.
I have never had any trouble installing software on any of my computers…why is this so damn difficult. It may be EZdrummer, but not EZinstall…geez

Or, move it whence it is located now to your desktop and run it from there.
