are you installing these to different computer with an automated installation across a network? If you're installing them locally then I suggest using the setup.exe. The .msi files are only meant to be used in a networking environment.

Do you have the "Windows Installer" service running?
Go to Control Panel > Admin Tools > Services, and enable the service if it's not already enabled. HTH |
