Windows Installer language conflict?

Just moved up to 64 bits Windows 7. I have the Dutch language version. I am trying to install MSXML2 Sp2 (msxml.msi). One can choose from a number of languages, but not Dutch, so I choose English (which is what I always did previously, and without problems). As soon as I click on Install, my computer freezes up, and the only option is to turn off the power switch. I have noticed that with other programmes (for example Abbyy Fine Reader 9.0) where one can choose the language (including Dutch), the same thing happens if I choose a language other that Dutch (fair enough), but surely we are allowed to use the MSXML package? Any suggestions?

Welcome to SevenForums!

Have a look at this post:
What verson of MSXML should I be using?

Yes indeed; but it is "Update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 (KB973688)" that freezes up for me.

Looks for me that windows Stopping the install by itself...because of a corrupt security setting.

Did you try to run a SFC/Scannow?

Analysis of Windows logbook revealed this to be a virus scanner issue. Turning this off solved the problem. Thnaks for suggestions anyway.

Turning it off is not an entire solution for a virus scanner issue! You might want having a look at your AV Scanner, and why it did troubleshot this install.

>Turning it off is not an entire solution for a virus scanner issue!

Quite agree! However, the virus scanner log doesn't show anything, and the Windows log entry doesn't look like a real problem (also it transpires that sundry other problems I have been having can be cured by turning off TPSrvWow in the Task Manager; I have contacted Panda about this) :
