Answer 1

If you downloaded SP1, download again. It might also be that you don't have enough RAM in your machine for the installer to unpack the patch.

Answer 2

No divo,i think the problem is depend on a program(Like a third party program) in my machine.I am downloading now sp as iso file.But i think that it wont fix the problem.

Answer 3

the program is Accessing c:\config.msi folder andit is not get the priveliages.

Answer 4

I was getting a similar error and the problem is that the iso file, even when corrupted (by an unstable download for instance) can still be uncompressed and/or mounted/burnt successfully. I re-downloaded the iso, mounted the new one and installed with no problems... I then observed a difference in the md5 hash of the failing iso with the one that worked... Make sure your vs2008 sp1 iso has this hashes to verify that a corrupted iso file is not the cause:

MD5 Hash = 0C5C6B7E4E80B66CD299B1DBA6A819DB

SHA-1 Hash = 2459232F67B38594DE192778020145DCD0B0DF9F
