Vista - civilization iv

I can't get this to install it doesnt even make it pass the install shiled
screen it says

An error {-5009 : 0x8002802b} has occurred while running this setup.
Please make sure you have finished any previous setup and closed other
applications
If the error still occurs, please contact your vendor: Firaxis Games
{##IDS_PRODUCT_URL##}.


Please help thanks.

Try rebooting and then right click the setup file and click "Run as
Administrator" and see if that gets it going.

Delete your windows temp files (run disk clean-up), should help
Installshield.

if that doesn't work what are your system specs? Civ 4 installs on all my
Vista boxes without any tweaking, so it's probably some Vista problem
(meaning your system is not setup correctly or something)

Windows XP or Vista? You never posted even your computer model number,
so I still have no idea what kind of computer you're trying this on...
Just that it's a notebook.

Error message seems to indicate XP, but being a Vista Forum...

So..... I don't know, your installer is crashing, before it even gets to
the first screen where you click on Next >? Sounds to me like there's
something wrong with your system. I mean, Installshield is just a
program, if it's crashing there's something going on. Any other programs
not install correctly on your system?

You tried deleting your temp files, humm? Did you check the
Firaxis/activision support site, see if there's maybe some
troubleshooting or if the error has come up before?

-A. - good luck.

i had a similar problem and found the solution, answer is pretty simple: if you have windows vista then go to "appData/roaming/installshield installation information" folder to delete the folder that is giving installShield some false update information or whatever. in my case it was {CFBCE791-2D53-4FCE-B3F.. and goes on..
then run the setup again with simple double click..

Hi, Please I want to know if sid meier's civilization IV by 2K is
compatible
with windows vista. In the support specifications on the web only is listed
windows XP
