Hello,
I'm trying to install VMware Player v 2.01 build 55017 on my Windows XP Home SP2 (French) but when I click on the install .exe file, the GUI installation appears for just 1 second and it closes immediatly after without any error.
I found a log file vminst.log_20070930_163932_Failed.log on the folder C:\Documents and Settings\MyUser\Local Settings\Temp with this informations :

I also tried to execute the .msi install file VMware Player.msi directly from the folder "C:\DOCUME~1\Administrator\LOCALS~1\Temp{A53A11CB-0095-498F-86BD-A15E8A86F405}~setup\"
but I get the following error :
ERROR 1311: Source file not found "C:\DOCUME~1\Administrator\LOCALS~1\Temp{A53A11CB-0095-498F-86BD-A15E8A86F405}~setup\V2V.cab".
For information :
- The service Windows Installer is already started
- Tried to remove all files and folders from C:\WINDOWS\Temp and C:\Documents and Settings\MyUser\Local Settings\Temp, and install again but the problem continues.
Thanks a lot for any help!
