Unable to install Sophos (XP)

Machine

Hey guys, i cant install Sophos on my Windows XP pc. I see it running through the task manager, and then it disappears.

I dont see any errros though. I have tried restarting multiple times and even left it on for 40minutes with no results


What do you suggest?

    Any failed install will be logged into your Windows %TEMP% directory. The error log should give more clues as to why the install failed as should the Event Viewer.

    It would be important to gather errors from these two locations in combination with exactly how/where the install simply stops, does the install wizard just vanish? Do you see the Sophos shield in the system tray at all?

    Also it would be important to know which installer you are running - Is it a Standalone or Managed installer or a customized installer given to you by your workplace or Educational institution?
