I am trying to install Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer and it keeps giving me this error a second into installation. "The installer encountered an expectant error during installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2738". Any ideas? I got the installation download from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/cc184923.aspx. At first I was told not to try it on Windows 7 cuz there are gliches...but I tried installing it on 2 other PCs with XP, and both gave me another error stating that I did not have the right processor or something on those PCs. I am lost and need to use this program ASAP for a class assignment due soon.
