Saturday, Already!!
Fast week!
Dishwasher failed. 100%-guaranteed-to-work plunger failed! Cathy's new computer has bad problems. And yesterday, my partner and I played bridge like loxes!!
Dishwasher is now fixed (loose harmonic balancer); toilet is unplugged (yay! for snakes). We're going in to TASK to fix the computer in a few minutes and the bridge was just one of those things -- probably the 3-week layoff hurt me a lot!
Cathy's new computer is a Dell DIM C521 (although the manuals call it a 9200!) and I believe the culprit is LapLink's PCMover software. This program is touted as:
Simply install the application on both your old and new computers and go! PCmover will determine which programs, files, and settings need to be moved, and when the transfer is complete, your new computer will have all the personality and functionality of your old PC - plus all of its own pre-installed software.
Sounds great, doesn't it? She keeps getting a C++ Runtime Library error message about msiexec.exe!! I have a couple of fixes to try and then I'm going to restore it to the way it came from the factory and install all her applications and then restore her data backup. So much for saving time and effort!!
There's an interesting thread at http://tinyurl.com/2fslnn
I'll let you know what happens. :-)

The problem may be caused by a corrupt .NET Framework install, which you'll need to fix using the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility (see method 2 at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922377)
