Hey guys. Trying to install VMWare Player to install a Linux emulator on my PC but I'm having a nightmare of a time. At the very end of the installation process I get a windows error message saying:
"Error 1723. There is a problem with the Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action
VM_CreateCreateVMwareAccount.7136C806_BF99_11DF_81D_9CDCDED72085, entry: VMCreateVMwareAccount, library;
C:\Windows\Installer\MSI7469"
When I click ok the install is rolled back and i get another message saying pritty much the same as above.
I'm aware it's telling me that I'm missing DLL files but I haven't got a clue why and have less of a clue as to how to get them back.
Also I went into C:\Windows to find the files but there is no Installer file, don't know if its hidden or has been deleted somehow.
So far I've tryed System Restore, ran SFC/SCANNOW from CMD and installed windows updates. I've tryed looking for a Windows Installer downlaod but it seems the latest 5.0 version for Windows 7 isn't available.
Well and truly stuck here guys, any thoughts?
