You can also enable Windows Installer logging for more details about what is happening when it fails. You can find instructions to do this at http://juice.altiris.com/tip/4471/enable-msi-installer-logging

I have been having some problems with Windows Installer lately. I could not find what is wrong with Windows Installer. Thank you for this info. I might be able to find the error and fix it or I could just update my Windows Installer because mine is very outdated.

Windows Installer seems to be more consistent now that 4.5 is available.
