This can occur..." when I try to Install Virtual PC, but other applications install just fine. So far only Virtual PC seem to be causing any problems on this box (Vista Business 64-bit). |

| | Re: Error 1719 when trying to install VirtualPC Hi Rick, I have tried this (method 1) and it doesn't help. I still get the same error. Method 2 isn't possible since there is no installer download for Vista available.

| | Re: Error 1719 when trying to install VirtualPC Hi Marcus, That's why I only mentioned trying method 1. What version of Vista are you trying to install VirtualPC to? It will not install to Home Premium or Basic. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "Marcus Eriksson" <sirlancelot@bredband.net> wrote in message news:625DF4B6-D17B-412B-B82F-B26029C6A3B4@microsoft.com... > Hi Rick, > > I have tried this (method 1) and it doesn't help.

| | Re: Error 1719 when trying to install VirtualPC Hi, While in safe mode, did you reregister both the 32 and 64 bit versions of msiexec? Virtual PC is a 32-bit application, so the critical one is the one in syswow64. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "Marcus Eriksson" <sirlancelot@bredband.net> wrote in message news:7D45DD12-508B-48F8-8FD0-6DBEAE261635@microsoft.com... > Vista Business 64-bit. > > "Rick Rogers" <rick@mvps.org> wrote in message > news:%23dnnDAumHHA.4316@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >> Hi Marcus, >> >> That's why I only mentioned trying method 1. >> >> What version of Vista are you trying to install VirtualPC to?
