VB Express Installation on 64 bit processor machine

Hi there:

I am trying to install VB Express on my laptop which is AMD Turion (64 bit) processor. The installation hangs up during "insalling components" stage. I am not sure how to fix this problem. I would really appreciate your help.

Thanks

    How long are you waiting Are you installing from a CD or DVD, or over the network

    Can you temporarily disable any anti-spyware or anti-virus software that is running

    Hi:

    sorry for the late response. i was using norton anti virus and norton internet security. i just disabled both of them before downloading and installing VB express, and it worked fine. Thanks for the help.

    Try running the uninstall tool first:

    I have a laptop with the same processor and haven't had any installation issues.
