MSI tries to open the package to run validation; on an x86 system, it can't open an x64 package. There's no workaround I'm aware of; you can only disable validation for x64 packages or use an x64 OS. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
