Looks like your install medium is rotten.

You may need to download the install files again or get a new media.

Have you tried the CD/DVD/file on another machine?

Cheers

[Zheng Yi]

Yes. I tried on 2 different machines, re-extracted the files and even put
them to CD. All had the same effect. If my install medium was bad,
wouldn't the extract fail?

thanks.

Its possible the files were "short" they extracted but they weren't all
there. 5.1.1 changed the extraction method in part to fix this
problem,it verifies the integrity of the download. 5.1 does not. So you
first need to verify the size of the files are the correct size. Those
that aren't need to be redownloaded.

You were right after all. I re-extracted to another directory and it worked
fine. Must be a bad track or something on my drive.

thanks
