We bought Delphi XE to slowly upgrade from Delphi 6.
Delphi 6 is well working in Win7/X64.
I installed two virtual machines to test it (I planned three of them, but Virtual PC is not supports X64 guest OS).
1.) Sun VirtualBox 4.x
2.) VMWARE player latest
The guest OS is Win7/X64. Latest SP’s, packs are installed.
I set local “area” settings to “english-usa”.
I started the installer as admin.
The phenomenon is:
The InstallAware is starting, the progress bar is access the 100%.
After this a new InstallAware Window is starting, but later it disappeared.
Then nothing happens. Sometimes the Windows say (dialog) that setup is not working, will I reinstall it?
The event log is not containing information about the problem.
I tried to starting “setup.exe” directly with “as admin”, but the result is same.
I tried to find the real setup files in “Local Settings/Temp”, and starting it directly as admin, but I got same result.
So I’m very disappointment, and puzzled… We bought something that is not installable.
May I can install the XE into VPC/XP Mode; but I’m sure the somebody CAN install this software in Win7/X64… 🙁
Can anybody help me, how to continue the installation?
How to “debug”?
Thanks for your help:

The solution was if I copy the zip file directly into VM (not download it), and I must set ALL AREA FLAGS to USA.
The language, the area, the format settings – all things!
Then the installer simply working…
Thank you for your help!
