.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / Setup / October 2005visual studio installation problem
When I try installing it, I get prompted for the prerequisite CD, shich is normal. However, when I put that disk in and click OK, I a strange little dialogue box pops up. The title bar says "InstallShield," and it's not an error. Instead, the box contains command line flags of some sort. stuff like "/L for languages" and "/S for silent mode," followed by an OK button. When I click OK, the dialogue disappears and the installation process ends. Same thing happens whenever I try. help pls Hi First thing can be done is to look at the application logs on your machine , what entries are added there . these message may helpfiguring what is going on. Thanks, Mohamed M .Mahfouz Developer Support Engineer MEA Developer Support Center Get hold of something like Process Explorer from the SysInternals web site and see what the path to that running setup executable really is. I suspect that there's something like an App Paths entry in the registry for setup.exe (or whatever it's called) that is hijacking the actual setup.exe on the CD.

Process explorer is showing that it the VS setup is actually running an old ATI video driver setup. ATI\SUPPORT\5-7_xp-2k_dd_ccc_wdm_enu_24085\ACE\setup.exe Any ideas on how to get rid of this? Is it something left over in the registry that somehow didn't get cleaned out? Yes it's in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths. There might also be one in HKCU.
