SS3.3 MDCF Full Installer Bug

[Morlok]

Well, Happy New Year.

Doesn't seem to be a long discussion, just a report.

Here are installation details (Installer 1.11|SS 3.3.03.10280|NSIS 2.11):

<

MSI: 2.0.2600.2, updating...

Output folder: C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\SS3\InstMsiA

Extract: cabinet.dll

Extract: imagehlp.dll

Extract: instmsi.msi

ExecShell: open "http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download"

Detected 9.0.0.2980, Windows Media Player 7.1 or newer requiered (voila!)

>

System: PII / WinME 4.90.3000 rus (a reason?). No antivirus.

WMP9 also was russian. Thought, that was an issue. Downloaded an english version. All the same.

The result doesn't seem to depend on the version number displayed. It reports all, that I set in registry as the version number for WMP (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\{6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6}).

Spent a lot of time trying to do something and finally installed SS3.3 from the official site. All OK.

Seems to be a rare appearance of the bug. Or modified dustribution. But full installer is a great idea.

Hope, it will be interesting for you.

PS. This is my first message here, so I want to say, that like this place.

Thanks to Kurisu for that Service Manuals.

Strange, I haven't seen this since our 3.2 Installer. I'm not sure what to say but I'm glad you achieved functionality. Thanks.
