When trying to run a standalone install of ASP.NET MVC 2 RTM on Windows 2003 Std x64 SP2 I ran into a problem where the install would fail but the installer reported nothing useful as an error.  [As soon as I can replicate this again I'll post a screenshot of the aforementioned useless error].

For anyone who is left to wallow in the suck that is legacy VB6 programming, like I am, hopefully this will be of help to you.

I recently switched to a new machine at which point I pulled down all of the source code from our Mercurial repositories so I could start working.  One of these projects is an old VB6 app that I wrote (and would deperately love to port to .NET).  Not a problem, I thought.  All of the changes were pushed to the central repository prior to me switching machines so everything should be great.
