Creator 2009 fails at EMC11 content

[3putt mark]

I'm having the same problem as many others here, trying to install Creator 2009 from a disc. Creator 2009 rolls back when it starts to install the EMC11 content.

 

I've tried the following steps several times, all without success

 

- Clean install for Vista

- uninstalled .net framework v3.5

- tried to rename dsetup.dll in system 32 folder but there is no such file

- disabled firewall, uninstalled anti-virus & taken modem offline

- rebooted

- applied the '2009 disc hotfix'. Message comes up that it 'could not locate key to remove'

- ran installation

 

I've tried the installation from the disc, from the HDD after copying it & even under a new administrator user.

 

Any ideas on what to try next?

 

I'm running a Dell desktop (Inspiron 530S which exceeds the recommended spec for Creat 2009) & using Vista

Ooopps, you already did the hotfix, as posted above.
