I just downloaded Revit and it finished installing Autodesk Design Revit however it failed to install Revit architecture 2012 and the Material Library. A message is given "An error occurred while installing this product. For more information view the installation log file.
The log file reads:

Any help would be great!
Hi,
Please ensure that the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and prior versions are installed and enabled on the system. If in doubt, you can run the .NET Framework verification utility from:
Next enable the verbose logging on the system by adding the following info the system from this Microsoft Knowledgebase article
Then, try launching C++ 2005 package directly from the 3rdParty\x86\2005\vcredist_x86.exe. If it succeeds, then you can again launch the setup. If it still shows an error, you can locate the MSI log, named similar to msixxxxx.log where the 'x' is either a number or letter, and upload it to the post. I would be happy to help analyze it for you.
Thanks,
Alison
