Hello, I had FPSC on my computer for quite a while until about a month ago. I uninstalled it to make room for some software I needed for a school project. Now today, I put the disc in, and oddly the autorun doesn't work. So I go to My Computer and double click the DVD drive. Now I can see the initial setup screen, so I click Install FPS Creator. The setup window seems to freeze for about 10 seconds, then nothing happens. Task Manager shows setup.exe running for those 10 seconds, then it dies. I tried going into the disc and running setup.exe directly, but the same thing happens. I also tried running setup.exe as admin but didn't have any luck there either. I looked through my registry to make sure no keys were left behind that might conflict with the fresh installation process, but there isn't anything there either. I'm a little stumped here, mainly because it worked perfectly fine on this laptop before, and now it's giving me trouble for the first time. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

System specs if it helps:
Windows 7 32bit
AMD Athlon 2.1GHz
3GB RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 (336MB RAM if I remember correctly)

I have about 30GB free at the moment actually, so I should be in the clear with that. I've tried countless things since my opening post and still haven't had any luck. The disc is in pristine condition as well, so it can't be read errors.

Still, I appreciate the reply very much and I'm going to keep trying things.

EDIT: Also, greetings from a fellow Pennsylvanian
