Feature Transfer Error

Whenever I try to install "CorelDRAW GraphicsSuite X3" it pops up following window Feature Transfer Error which says:

FEATURE TRANSFER ERROR
Feature: DefualtFeature
Component:
File:
Error: Catastrophic failure

My other software 'Setups' are also giving "Feature Transfer Error"

Any idea what is the Issue? Thanks

If u r not logged in as administrator, login as admin and then try again.

Thnx for Prompt reply...
i have created a user account for myself and given it administrative rights..But after ur reply i tried logging in as Adminstrative ..but the problem persists...

"FEATURE TRANSFER ERROR
Feature: DefualtFeature
Component:
File:
Error: Catastrophic failure"

are there this kind of error.

, or is it coz of a virus/spyware...

@blackpearl75 which AV are you using.

& ONLY if you're sure there's no virus/spyware on ur system then try installing the s/w with the AV disabled.

Most probably the installation file is corrupt.I have had some of this.

Yess..s18000rpm..i have also come across this prob. for the 1st time...this is not due to virus/spyware...as i have re-install my winXp Sp2(i've used the SAME CD i generally use to install windows) and i'm trying to install CorelDRAW GraphicsSuite X3 (& other software setups) on fresh install of windows...i use Clamwin and Kaspersky Avtivirus+ Ad-Aawre SE Pro...i've checked my HDD with chkdsk also...i am sure that the prob. is Not related to Hardware.
Thnx 4 the reply..

update XP (maybe the problm is with "windows installer")

see this *www.smartcomputing.com/techsupport/detail.aspx?guid=&ErrorID=27366

many times windows installer is out of date and it is unable to provide the proper installation guidelines to the program. so UPDATE your windows

Lol...I never said a damn thing

Nope..the issue is NOT solved..despite solution provided by some of the best "masters" on this community...corel setup issue remains as it is...here is another "FEATURE TRANSFER ERROR - no.2" screenshot with ANOTHER Program (Luxology Modo- for 3D)...Guess my windows is Gone

Just one ques. - Does it corrupt my "Setup" Files Too..????
Regards
& Thnx for putting in your valuabale Time.

Hi!! Update windows to what ?? i'm already using winXP Sp2. Hope "NTFS" or "FAT32" file system has nothing to do in this? Prior to re-install, i was on FAT32 But now i'm on NTFS..does it need to be considered ??

i heard there are specific commands to repair windows in 'R' = repair mode..i guess this is what i have to do ..run setup and at options screen Press 'R' for repair..then what ....??? i am clueless
Regards..

no dont press R ,instead choose to install xp.It will automatically detect the existing installation and give 2 options.
1.install a fresh copy
2.Repair the existing installation

choose repair
