Hi Red45,
When running an installation, you receive the following error message:
"Error 1603: Fatal Error During Installation" Or you may get the following error:
"Error 1603: General Windows Installer engine error. Increase DiskSpace..."
Here are some reasons and recommended solutions for that issue:
1. Click My Computer / Rightclick the Drive & Choose Properties
/ Run the "Disk Cleanup..." / Next Click the "Tools" Tab and run
the "Error-Checking" and "Defragmentation" utilities.
2. Clean the Temp Directory. Click START > Run and type:
%temp%
Select all files and delete them. If a file is locked, skip that file and continue
deleting the rest of the files in that directory.
3. A certain file on the machine is locked. To fix this:
Close all applications running in the background.
Reboot your computer.
Run the installation again.
4. If you are using Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, or NT, the Windows Installer Service
may not be properly installed on the machine. Update the system with the latest
Windows Installer Service by following the instructions in
http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q108201
5. On Windows NT, 2000, or XP, make sure you have administrative privileges.
6. Use Microsoft's Windows Installer Cleanup utility to remove traces of previous
installations.
