The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Visual Studio 2008 SP1 Install Issue

Asked by CADOIM in Visual Studio, Windows Installer

Tags: Visual Studio 2008, SP1, KB950278, webdesignercore_kb950278.msp

I have seen this question asked all over the Internet with no answers.

I am running XP SP3 with a working installation of VS 2008 and Office 2007 Pro Plus. I am trying to install TFS client on my machine but I understand I have to put VS 2008 SP1 on first. I have downloaded the file from MS, but the installation always bombs when it tries to install webdesignercore_kb950278.msp. I looked at my event viewer and received 3 errors during installation starting with the most recent:

Product: Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007 -- Error 2902.An internal error has occurred.  (ixfAssemblyCopy                  ) Contact Microsoft Product Support Services (PSS) for assistance.

Product: Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007 - Update 'Hotfix for Office (KB950278)' could not be installed. Error code 1603. Additional information is available in the log file c:\windows\temp\Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 SP1_20090924_065533439-Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007-MSP1.txt.

Product: Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007 -- Configuration failed.

EventType spinstaller, P1 microsoft visual studio 2008 sp1, P2 i, P3 1603, P4 microsoft visual studio 2008 sp1_webdesignercore_kb950278.msp, P5 e, P6 9.0.30703.1, P7 1, P8 9.0.30729 1033, P9 x86_winxp, P10 2902.

I checked out http://support.microsoft.com/kb/895975 for the 2902 message and I have version 3.1.4001.5512 of Windows Installer. No Office programs were running during the install and I ran the Office 2007 repair wizard, but it froze. I'm going to reinstall Office, but since I found no answers on the Internet for this, I wanted to see if I could get an answer published.
