At the risk of checking the completely obvious, does your c:\temp\ directory contain (i) a file called setup.ini and (ii) a subdirectory called release\ containing many non-empty subdirectories? If so, then are you allowing enough time for stuff to happen? After altering the preferred selection from "Default" to "Install" (which may itself take a while) there may be appreciable pauses while apparently nothing us happening (thinks: hung?) when in fact a lot is going on. Suggest you have another shot? Fergus
