Hi Andy,
Here's what the Installshield folks have to say: ;-)
Error 1608 is a generic error thrown by Setup.exe. The occurrence of this
error message is uncommon and is system specific. Listed below are some
common causes or instances known to occur in case of this error.
1.. InstallScript Engine installation may have failed causing the engine to not install properly.
2.. Dcom Configuration may have limited access, causing setup to fail while creating an instance of the IDriver object.
3.. The operating system may be corrupt or outdated.
4.. Setup may fail due to an older version of InstallShield Express 3.x that failed to uninstall during the upgrade to
InstallShield Express 3.5 SP4.
5.. Lack of sufficient privileges on the machine.
6.. On Windows 98, Dcom98 may need to be updated or installed.
