Trying to install Act 6.0 - keeps locking up

[marciekr]

I am trying to install 6.0 on my new laptop.  It keeps locking up when it is installing file c:/.../mssql$act7/install/sysmessages.sym.  I am running Windows XP, I have disabled McAfee and I have done a system restore after each time it has locked up.  I can't afford to upgrade.  I have to get this program to install.  Thanks!

I downloaded the software from Sage thinking that maybe my disk was damaged but it is still doing the same thing.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
