Error 1324

[Dan]

I just did a fresh install of XP on my computer, and
after installing several new programs I'm now getting an
error "Error 1324. The path My Documents contains an
invalid character."
I've never had this happen before, and I cant seem to
install any new programs now without getting this error.
Any help in getting past this is appreciated.

This usually happens when you try to change the default installation folder
for the program when you install and you enter an invalid path. To see the
proper path, right click the folder where you want to install the program
and select Properties. You will see the path to the folder in the Target
Line.
