Thanks for the suggestion. Yeah, one of the first things I did (even though
I had not installed this MSI before) was check the whole drive to make sure
no CEC or any sort of files related to what's in the MSI existed, and they
don't. It's really weird.

As I said, this MSI (and actually, it appears that it's ALL MSIs on this
system and not just that one) installs perfectly fine on another 4.2 system
I have in the office, so I don't believe it's related at all to the MSI
itself, but has something to do with installing MSIs at all on this system.

If I find a solve, I'll let the group know. I'm sure it's something
incredibly stupid - but unfortunatly I'm right there with it right now.. :)

Thanks -
Tony
