I thought I was relatively conservative in taking things out of my install but I get "Installshield Error 0x80040707" every time InstallShield runs. The exact error message is: (new window) title bar = Unhandled Exception text = Error Number: 0x80040706 Description: Object reference not set Setup will now terminate. I tried the suggestions at http://www.mrtweak.com/software-microsoft-...nd-windows-dep/ I have included the profile as an attachment. Thanks in Advance for all the help UPDATE: Turning off DEP (using the "/noexecute=AlwaysOff" boot flag works so I'm assuming DEP caused the problem) I turned er off, installed everything then turned er back on. It works but sucks. At any rate this is not an nLite problem but I thought I would leave it here as useful information. LAST_SESSION.INI
