Hey guys..gettin a bit pissed off with this now so any help would be greatly appreciated. I was tryin to install a game when I got error code 1607: unable to install Installshield Scripting Runtime. I downloaded the isscript but for some reason it froze when I tried to run it (have downloaded it from several mirrors)....any ideas?? this happened when I tried to install wireless usb as well...

There are several posssible causes for this...try the following first.

Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Windows Explorer.

Open the following folder: C:\Program Files\InstallShield\Developer\Redist\Language Independent\i386.

Double-click Isscrpt.msi.

Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.

Does this reinstall the InstallShield or does it error, as well?

Start with "Register Idriver and Msiexec" and move on down the page. Reboot after each and try to install.

no luck

That's the usual suspects...

Click Start, then Run, type services.msc and click "Ok".

Locate and double click on Windows Installer.

What is the value listed in the "Startup Type:" field?

[Celtic_symphany]

says Manual

[wannabe1]

Ok...that's correct.

Click Start, then Run, type msiexec /unreg and click "Ok".

Click Start, then Run, type msiexec /regserver and click "Ok".

Try to install...

You can copy and past the commands in blue into the run box to reduce the chance of error.
