Oh, bummer... So anxiety for nothing. ;-) Still, using the newest setup.exe just this morning, gave the same problem with postinstall issues. Maybe the mirror I was using hadn't been updated yet. I'll give it a few more days, take a deep breath and try installing the newest iteration. Generally speaking, which site or mirror gets updated first and primarily if any? Thanks though for the heads-up Corinna! -- /Sorin
