IE11 install woes

For the life of me I just cant get it on this machine. Got it up to IE9 but IE11 just will not install. No outstanding updates waiting and reinstalled those two troublesome KBs that the previous thread suggested to no avail.

It just keeps bugging out with Setup exit code: 0x00009C59 (40025) - The neutral cab failed to install.

Ran sfc /scannow

Code:

C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow

Beginning system scan.  This process will take some time.

Cleared down BCS log file (was 400+MB) and then tried the IE11 installer and attached the file along wit the IE11 install log file and DISM file.

I could just rebuild the machine but dont want to admit defeat. Head tells me that there is a corruption in the Winsxs folder but how to repair it? I do have another Win7 box on my network I could copy winsxs from?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Geek,
