Visual Studio 2008 on Windows x64 Installation error

I am trying to install Visual Studio 2008 on a Windows 7 x64 machine and I am unable to install it and don't want to give up Windows 7.

Below is the error log.

[11/05/09,15:21:08] Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 64bit Prerequisites (x64): [2] e:\setup..\wcu\64bitprereq\x64\vs_bsln.exe could not be unpackaged because it is not a cabinet.

[11/05/09,15:21:09] setup.exe: [2] ISetupComponent::Pre/Post/Install() failed in ISetupManager::InternalInstallManager() with HRESULT -2147467259.

[11/05/09,15:21:09] VS70pgui: [2] DepCheck indicates Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 64bit Prerequisites (x64) is not installed.

Is it possible that your installation-medium is corrupt? If you downloaded it, can you verify its checksum?

I went and found a physical disc that I knew that worked. I had downloaded the file from MSDN using the Microsoft Download Manager and I thought that it verified the check sum but it does not.
