I have tried everything I know and a few things from friends in game and still get that message. Like wubbie said its an xp system. still no luck with this. anyone have any other thoughts?

still looking for some help with this problem...

If it's a fresh install of Windows XP, did you install SP2 (or SP3)? How about all the critical necessary updates? .NET 1.X, 2.X, 3.X?

If so, then the final step would be to update your MSI installer. That error is related to the MSI installer...it's telling you that your MSI installer is too old for the version that the MSI file you are trying to install was created with.

The following link *should* be the newest version of Microsoft's MSI installer:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942288/

After that's installed (and you've restarted your computer), issue the following commands from a command prompt (ie, Click Start > Run > CMD):

MSIExec /unregister

MSIExec /regserver

Restart your machine one more time after it completes the above steps, and then retry to install Decal. Hopefully that helps ya out.


Edit : Typos

thanx Grafix, I tried this and still no luck I am still getting the same error code:2350 i am about to give up on this, been 5 days now and nothing is woring.

and also I said reformatted I should have said did a recovery, that might make a big difference!!

anyone have anything else I can try before I say the heck with it?

In the first post you said you got the error when trying to reinstall decal. Did you try to uninstall it and manually delete the decal folder and then reinstalling?
