Vista - MacDrive 7.2 error on Vista Ultimate x64, please help...

**SubCityZero** · 11-08-2008

Hello, this is my first time here, and I love this website.
It is a wonderfull resource for Vista (64-bit) users.

One week ago, I bought a new PC, very high specifications, so I also bought Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit.
Now I have a problem.
I am trying to install MacDrive 7.2 on my PC, and the installation goes fine.
But at the end of this installation, it does a rollback, and throws me an error:

"MacDrive 7 Setup could not be completed because an error occurred."

It throws me that error after it executed the rollback.
And when I click OK, the installer closes.

What I have tried:

- Compatibilty change to Windows XP (SP2).
- Right-mouse, run as Administrator.
- Exclude MacDrive 7.2 installation from 'DEP'.

I hope somebody can help me with this.

Thank you.
