hello, is there any change when you right-click the setup file & choose to run it as administrator?

Hi Phillip, thanks for the return, I eventually figured it out, I booted into safe mode and this time the wizard appeared and all was fine.. and to answer your reply, no it made no difference, as a password was required which I do not have, as I am the only user and the system is no password protected, , it did not make any difference as to running it as an admin or as the actual user, seems a daft way of having to go about installing the program..
