I just built a home computer;

SOUND VTB|SANTA CRUZ 5.1 CH DSP RTL
ASUS P4P800 DELUXE SPRINGDALE RT
HD 120GB|SEAGATE ST3120026A 8mb
CD MS|WINDOWS XP PRO w/SP1a OEM
512MB KIT PC3200 HYPERX A-k RET
FD 1.44MB|SONY MPF920 Black
8CPU P4/2.8CGHz 800M 478P/512K HT RT
DVD+/-RW PLEXTOR|708A-BPS/BL OEM
Mad Dog cd-r

I installed windows xp from a disc including service pack
1a. I was able to install my antivirus and a other
software. Then for reasons unknown to me the next day I
tried to install the software for a wi-fi card and each
time the installshield wizard would say that install
failed due to error code 1628. I have searched here and
there without any answers. It appears as if some others
have had this problem.

My question is how to solve this dillemma. Can I download
installshield wizard from another site; if so what site?
The windows program was sold as oem; does this matter? Do
you know what the problem is? Is there another service
pack beyond 1a?

Please help. any assitance would be greatly appreciated

Thank you for your time.
