That error message means your Windows does not contain the VBScript programming language engine. I use VBScript for part of the installation process.
The solution is to install VBScript on your system. Microsoft should have the required files. I don't have a URL for this but welcome one if someone has such a thing. I belive this is the third time I've run into this problem in the last couple years. I know it can happen on so-called Starter versions of Windows, but I think the last time I saw this happen was not in one of those, so I also wonder under just what conditions VbScript does not come with Windows.
