WIC Setup Failed.

[RDZ]

Hi,
I am having problems in installing Visual Studio 2008, because of WIC installation(Error Code-1603)

On separately trying to install WIC,
I am getting the following log message.

First of all i would like to Welcome you to Techarena Community as i can see this is your very first post. I would also like to suggest you to post the query in proper section so that you can get proper assist, like for this, you should have posted in Windows Software. As this is just Introduction place, people visit very less often.

Now as am not expert in WIC or Visual Studio, just what i can do for you is this link: Wic Installer Problem. Hope you can get some help from here.
