Had MJ 8.0.400 installed and running fine. Ran all day yesterday extremely well. Today, one of my kids managed to get a trojan on the machine (even though got anti virus and spywareguard). Cleaned machine then when I ran MJ it would come up and play for about 15 to 20 seconds then vanish from memory.
After trying a few things I uninstalled and tried to reinstall. It now runs through the first part of the install where it says preparing installshield, the progress bar reaches the end and it drops out of memory.
So far, after reading some related threads I have done the following all with Anti Virus and stoppers turned off.
Attempted re-install.
Cleaned registry and attempted re-install.
Redownloaded (no real reason to do that but clutching at straws) and attempted re-install.
Cleared all temp files from Windows daft hiding places and attempted re-install.
Wrote this message.
Other than this niggle, so far seems to be an awesome application.
Further to this, out of curiosity I downloaded Media Center 11 to have a llok and it does exactly the same, reaches the end of the installshield progress bar and just stops.
