Microsoft products :(((

I’ve tried to install IE7 …many times on my laptop. It doesn’t like me. I couldn’t find any of these errors they told you to search from log file. It didn’t install in safe mode either. You can find the log of my last attempt at the end of this post in case you’re smart and think you could help me after seeing it. I’d really like to check webpages I’ve coded with 7th version, after all you never know how weird IE can possibly render standard code.

Secondly I tried to install Media Player 11. Guess what? It stopped at 87% and told me that it wasn’t installed. It also gave me link to web help: now that helps a LOT, really.
