Installation Problem

Hello, I have today purchased a years security, but am unable to install the AVAST software? it gets the majority of the way thru installing, and stops everytime it gets to ‘‘vcredist_x86_sp1.exe’’ ? please help, I have tried bot installing automatically and manual installation.

My computer is running Windows Vista, it has just been restored back to factory settings, and as far as I can see has no conflicting software?

when restored back to factory specc… have you then also restored a factory installed trail AV ?
like Norton / McAfee / TrendMicro …
