There is a menu entry called "Base setup". You should definitely go through this step. It installs DCOM98 and IE6 which both bring many DLLs later needed for setup and other software. Also the config installed during this process is a good start for all other attempts. After the Base setup you might want to update the Windows Installer found in the menu called "Install Windows system software". After that you can try to install the software you want to use.
