AnswerMicrosoft Visual Studio 2005 Setup Error

    I'm trying to install Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite from a MSDN subscriber download.  Each time I run the installer I get the following error.  Any help would be great.

     

    ---------------------------
    Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Setup

    Error 1305.Error reading from file C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Device Emulator\{DE425A95-FBB8-46CB-8DFD-89867130F732}.dess.  Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.

    Thanks

    Are you installing from an ISO or did you burn your own CD or DVD?

    The media may also be bad so you can also try copying the layout to your hard drive and install from there.

    I burned the MSDN ISO to a DVD.  The DVD worked on two machines, but perhaps it got scratched.  I'll try copying the contents to the harddrive to see if that works.

     

    Thanks

    Also, make sure the DVD volume label is "DVD1"
