Hi,

Make sure you don't have any unneeded programs running during the install (such as antivirus, etc). Check the System Tray (bottom-right corner on the Taskbar) and turn off as much as you can. Press Ctrl-Alt-Del to open the Task Manager, click the Processes tab, and end any processes you know to be unnecessary (if you are unsure, you can take a screenshot of the Task Manager and post it here, and we can tell you what to turn off). Then try the installer again.

If no luck, you can try to install in Safe Mode. Restart your computer, and tap F8 while it's starting up. Select Safe Mode from the list when it appears. Try the installer again once Windows is loaded.

Let us know how you go with all that.
