I have been running 0.9912 on Vista.
Yesterday I tried installing 1.0407.

  1. First without deinstalling the old version
  2. Then I stopped the recording service
  3. Next I installed vcredist
  4. Next I uninstalled 0.9912
  5. Next I uninstalled vcredist
  6. I then tried again after renaming the folder devnz in Program Files to devnzold

After every step I tried again to install 1.0407. On every try the installation ended directly after the Installation wizards welcome screen with a message box stating "Fatal Error", "Installation ended prematurely because of an error"

In the application event log of Vista I can find 2 entries. One says installation failed. The second one reports Installation error status 1603.

So I hope someone can help me through the install because I do not know what else to try.

As I have never encountered such an installation error I searched how to get more info. I found someone mention to run the msi from the command line. So I did.

Code:
msiexec  /i GBPVR10407.msi /L*v logfile.txt
This results in a pretty long file.
I can not get some info from it as to what is the problem.
The only thing that strikes me as odd is the fact that it set as parameter

Quote:MSI © (B0:04) [10:59:44:386]: Target path resolution complete. Dumping Directory table...
MSI © (B0:04) [10:59:44:386]: Note: target paths subject to change (via custom actions or browsing)

MSI © (B0:04) [10:59:44:386]: Dir (target): Key: GAC , Object: H:\
The strange thing being here that it refers to drive H which is my data and projects drive. I also have Visual Studio 2005 installed but I cannot think of any reason why the installer should use that.

I hope someone can help me here.

Did you try to clean the registry of entrys after un-installing?
There could be some entrys lefter there perhaps?

Indeed I also looked through the registry and removed things that could make a difference.

I am pretty much surprised.
Looking into installation issues with older versions I came across this thread

http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=33744

That did it for me.

I have downloaded and tried to install versions 1.2.13, 1.3.7 and 1.4.7.
All of them failed to install with gui on vista bussiness.
I started out with 0.99 and that I could re-install nicely.

So I do not know what the problem is, but if you stop the recording service and then do
Quote:gbpvr10407.msi /passive
from a command prompt, you should get it installed.

Wish you lots of fun and thank you for gbpvr.
