    Hi guys,

    I have been trying to install sony soundforge 9 and during the installation i get this message:

    The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.

    Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'vcredist.msi' in the box below.

    Use source:
    C:\DOCUME~1\Josh\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP000.TMP\

    It looks for the vcredist.msi file, which i found and downloaded, although when i go to run the package it starts up and then just stops. Has anyone else had this problem and is there a solution? I am using windows vista 32bit.

    Thanks

    Type the follwing at a cmd prompt

    msiexec /I c:\vcredist.msi /lv c:\c+.log /qb /norestart

    the log file it produces should give you an idea of why it fails.
