3ds Max Design 2012 installation problems

Hello,

 

I am trying to install 3ds Max Design 2012 on a Windows 7 Professional 64bit machine without success. The setup progresses as far as installing the main program and then proceeds to rollback the installation. I have installed the software on another Windows 7 Professional 64bit machine and a Windows XP 64bit machine with success. I have checked for the correct version of .net (version 4) and DirectX, both of which appear correct. I have tried installing in diagnostics mode without success, aswell as installing 3ds max on a different drive from the Windows installation, again a failure. I am running the setup under the local administrator account, in this case 'VYX'. Below is the installation log:

 The machine has an installation of 3ds max 2009 and 3ds max 2010 - is it possible for those versions to cause a conflict?

I am running out of ideas here and would appreciate any help you can provide.

Previous installed versions should not cause you problems.  There should be a more detailed installation log in your %temp% folder that may have more insight to your issue.

I tried running the installation in diagnostics mode but that did not work.
