OK. First of all I have tried all the sticky posts suggestions regarding clean install (after which I had to do a system restore because NO program worked), renaming dsetup.dll (which isn't on my pc) and anything else I can find but to no avail. Sometimes install goes as far as getting the "installation was interrupted" message, sometime it hangs at various places in the install - right now it's stuck at installing smart sound. Is there any guaranteed way to actually get this to work? Do Roxio even care that there is a problem? I have been using PCs for 15 years and have never had a problem with any program like with this. It's crazy that Roxio can develop what (I hear) is an excellent program, but cannot develop an install routine that actually works. I know there can be problems with different computers but just skimming this forum it's not just a few. I don't see why I should need to spend hours reading forum posts or phoning support just to get a program to install.
My system:
Intel Quad Core 6600
4 GB RAM
2 x 500 GB hard drives
2 x DVD burners, 1 LG, 1 NEC
Nvidia 8800GTX 512 MB graphics.
Asus sound cars
Vista Ult 64.
Any help welcome, and please no "read the stickies" messages, been there, done that.
Thanks.

Update: Install completed but the only program actually installed is Cineplayer and smartsound. Also always says "typical install" and takes around 1 minute.
