Hi Christine,

Not immediately. I've seen this error before and it was always due to a
folder or home drive redirection. If you've checked that the local admin
user's profile folder locations don't refer to f:\ (try a regedit search
just to make sure) then obviously something else is pointing the installer
to F:\.

About the only other easy thing to do is actually try creating an F:\ drive
but substituting f: to your profile, eg

subst f: "%userprofile%"

The next thing I'd suggest do is verbose logging of the msiexec
installation. Do a manual install with the following command line:

msiexec /i full_path_to_your _.msi TRANSFORMS=full_path_to_your_.mst
/l*v Log_file_name /q

The log file should give you a bit more info about the install failure and
may point you in the right direction.

regards,

Rick

 Hi,

Thank you, but all the keys are using the *%*userprofile% for the admin
profile.  Any other thoughts?
