setup.msi for activesync 4.5 wont run?

[jansant]

I can not install activesync 4.5 because the setup.msi file is
creating an error. I've downloaded the file a few times, and also from
different sources. Each time I get the same error, thinking about it i
think in the past have had same problem with .msi files on this PC.

error.error reading from file d:/downloads/setup.msi verify that the
file exists and that you can access it

anyone know what causes this error and the solution?
I have windows2000 sp4.
thanks

I had the same problem but not with ActiveSync. In the end I had to
talk to Microsoft and they walked me through flushing the version of
Windows Installer that I had on my system and then installing the
latest version.
