    Default problems installing programs

    i have been having this problem all of today. i was trying to install various versions of ghost programs, finally ending with acronis true image home trial version. i allowed the prog to do whatever it wanted, connect to whoever it wanted, and i keep getting the same result every time. it tells me that installation was interrupted before it could complete... whats goin on here? can anyone help me? i have downloaded and installed .net and there is no change.


    help.

    Try installing in safemode or do a selective startup use msconfig choose selective startup disable load startup items - then go to the services tab and check hide all microsoft services then click disable all - reboot with just the essential stuff

    help.
    did you check to see if your system meets the minimum requirements?
    you may not have enough space on your harddrive
    is the program compatible with your OS?
