It reminds me of a problem I had when deploying on Win 2000, where you have to be logged on with admin rights to install software. Could that be the problem?

One more suggestion - if the machine reboots in the installation routine, make sure that the autoexec.bat doesn't have something in it to clear all temporary files ie;

del c:\temp\*.tmp

as this could have the same effect

I ran into this same VERY ANNOYING problem. I identified it as being caused by the calendar control, but I never came up with a fix.
