Running Windows Xp sp 2 on a Compaq R3000. Download is okay. Installation
starts okay. Start WindowsDefender click on [RUN]

Please wait while installation wizard install -- This is where process would
hang. I wait for over 30 minutes and no progress bars. I had to remove power
to shut down and reboot.

Solution to my problem. TURNED OFF NORTON VIRUS SCAN. Hope this helps others.
 
More from Tom. Installation finished and did its first scan. Only the
installation did not generate a desktop icon and there is no icon in the
system tray.
However process MSASCui.exe is running.

If you are having trouble on the install, turn off antivirus real-time
protection for long enough to get the install done.
