Good morning,

I have tried and tried to install the new version of the Zune software
on my Windows Vista Ultimate machine. I tried installing the normal
method, as Administrator, logging in with the Administrator account,
even copying the install folder out of the Temp folder into the root of
C to see if that will work. Nothing, I get the same error.

Zune Software

Installation Failed

Setup must stop because the required package 'Zune' didn't install.

Fatal error during installation.

Error code: 0x80070643

I dont think its that, i think its something else. But i dont know
what. It sucks i really like zune and i paid over 250 for the thing and
its all shiny brand new and i cant use it. I am getting the same error
message though to make things more clear for you with me but i have

are you by any chance attempting to install it onto external usb hard
drive? I made that mistake at first, and had the same issue. When I
installed to my primary internal, I had no problem.

I have the same issue on a Vista Business Ultimate laptop. All of the
Windows updates have been applied. I have made sure all unnecessary
programs are off, including my anti-virus program. It installed and runs
fine on another identical laptop. I have even tried a work around using
the zunevista.exe and the zune-x86.msi files. I watch it almost complete
the installation then just quit and roll it back off.
