Before proceeding with the installation, Setup first checks to see whether your computer has the Microsoft Windows Installer (MSI) utility running as part of your system software. If your computer runs Windows XP, the current version of MSI already exists on your system. If your computer runs an earlier Windows release, you may still have MSI in your computer if you previously installed other software that uses MSI. In either of these cases, Setup will display its first wizard panel immediately. If Setup does not find MSI or an earlier version of MSI is installed in your computer, it installs files necessary to continue the installation, then prompts you to restart your computer. When your computer restarts, Setup will continue from where it left off.
